    12.5 BLACKWATER SYSTEM (TOILET) General points - Blackwater is human waste including water flushed from the toilets. - Close the valves after each use and especially when the boat is unattended. - Regularly check the valves and thru-hull seacocks for proper operation and watertightness. - Regularly check the tightness of the flexible pipe clamps and connections.
  • Page 105 Toilet General view YOUR BOAT IS FITTED WITH A BLACKWATER TANK To minimise odours from this tank, we suggest following the use and maintenance guidelines below: Holding tank - A blackwater tank is used solely for the temporary collection of water from the toilets. - The tank can be emptied in 2 ways: - By connection to a pumping system that empties the tank by suction.
  • Page 106 Use of toilets - Every time the toilets are used, flush afterwards with copious amounts of water in the bowl using the toilet pump (manual or electric). - When you are leaving the boat for several days, flush with fresh water. You may wish to use the shower in the head for this purpose.

    13.6 ENGINE WATER INTAKE - The sea water intake plays a major role in keeping the engine running well. - Keep the filter under the hull as clean as possible; - Brush the filter whenever the boat is lifted out; - do not cover the filter in antifoul.

  • Page 122: Fuel Filter

    13.7 FUEL FILTER Engine running problems may stem from various causes, including dirty fuel. The injection pump may wear out if there is water in the system. The water results either from condensation resulting from an insufficiently filled tank, or from a filler cap which has either not been closed properly or which has a damaged seal.

  • Page 123: Engine Control

    13.9 ENGINE CONTROL - The engine manufacturer's notes provide detailed explanations on how to operate the engine and keep it running well. - Read the manufacturer's notes on use and maintenance of the engine. Control lever - The control lever is fitted with a safety system which prevents the engine from starting when in gear.

  • Page 124: Access To The Engine

    Lifting the engine - Before lifting the outboard engine, make sure nothing inside or outside the boat (person, animal or object) is likely to obstruct the manoeuvre. - When navigating in shallow water, you are advised to lock the bench seat in the advanced position to allow the engine to be raised quickly.

  • Page 125: Flaps

    13.11 FLAPS 13.11.1 General points - The flaps (trim control system) allow the pilot to adjust the boat's trim under way and thus to reduce fuel consumption. - The flaps run on DC power. - A fuse protects the electrical circuit. - They are operated by means of a push button situated on the wheelhouse and their position is adjustable.

  • Page 127 13.11.3 Zipwake trim tabs General points - The dynamic control system of interceptors provides the boat's helmsman with precise control of the trim and list of the boat. - The system automatically controls the trim and roll of the boat and works permanently to keep the boat level.
  • Page 128 Operation - The boat's helsman must get used to the interceptor system in calm water before using it in more severe weather conditions. - The Zipwake system must only be used when underway : the skipper must shut it down when the boat is in port, at anchor or out of the water.

  • Page 129: Propeller

    Diagram of layout 13.12 PROPELLER - The propeller delivered with the boat is specifically selected after trials carried out in collaboration with the engine manufacturer. Never change the propeller without first consulting a professional engineer. - Propeller efficiency will drop if the propeller blades are damaged or dirty: clean the blades regularly and attentively.

  • Page 131: Steering System

    14 STEERING SYSTEM 14.1 GENERAL POINTS - The steering is hydraulic. - The steering system is an important safety feature. For this reason, an annual inspection of the whole system must be carried out by a professional engineer. - Owners are expected to operate the boat in a reasonable manner, with the direction of the helm (in degrees/seconds) set according to the actual speed of the boat.
  • Page 132 Replenishing and bleeding the circuit - This task must be carried out by a professional engineer: please consult your dealer. - Use only ISO 22 oil. - The whole of the hydraulic circuit must be kept scrupulously clean: any impurity may cause deterioration of the steering gear.

    14.4 BOW THRUSTER General points - The thruster motor is DC powered. - The bow thruster assists with steering the boat when manoeuvering at low speed (e.g. picking up a mooring buoy or berthing on a pontoon). - An operating relay is installed in the circuit. - A fuse protects the electrical circuit.
  • Page 135 During lift-out - Check that the propellers turn properly, with neither play nor stiffness. - Clean the blades carefully. - Remove the propeller, clean the shaft support and coat the shaft with silicone-based grease before refitting the propeller. - After cleaning and applying a primer, antifoul the housing and the propellers. ADVICE-RECOMMENDATION - Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for use and maintenance.

  • Page 137: Deck Fittings

    15 DECK FITTINGS 15.1 GENERAL POINTS Alcohol, solvent or acetone-based solutions must not be used to clean/maintain the outer surfaces of the boat. A warm, soapy, water-based solution is best for this purpose. 15.1.1 GRP - Regularly brush the deck using a gentle de-greasing agent then rinse the deck with fresh water.

    15.5 ELECTRIC WINDLASS General points - The windlass is DC powered. - The windlass is designed for anchoring purposes: Any other use is dangerous and must be strictly avoided. - An operation relay is fitted to the electrical circuit. - A circuit-breaker protects the power supply to the windlass. - The windlass operation is activated by an operational interlock relay which is powered by the engine's alternator: the windlass only works when the boat's engine is running.
  • Page 145 - When at sea, secure the chain or anchor rope to secure points such as the chain stopper or the anchor rode to the belaying cleat (the windlass must not be used as the only method of securing the chain or rode). - With dual control, be careful to use only one control at a time.

  • Page 147: Hull Fittings

    16 HULL FITTINGS 16.1 INTERIOR UPHOLSTERY GENERAL POINTS - The interior upholstery is designed for use inside the boat only. - The fabric used inside the boat has not had any special treatment to protect it from a saline atmosphere or from UV. - Make sure the curtains are drawn to protect the interior upholstery from exposure to sunlight.
  • Page 148 COATED FABRIC (PVC) Maintenance - The PVC must be regularly cleaned with soapy water to maintain its appearance and to avoid accumulation of debris. We strongly advise against using the following products: lacqeurs, aggressive cleaning products, detergents, xylene or acetone-based products which can cause permanent damage or make the fabric deteriorate.

  • Page 149: Interior Woodwork

    16.2 INTERIOR WOODWORK Varnished wooden panels: - The acrylic varnish has medium resistance to external chemical damage as well as minor scratches. - Clean regularly with lukewarm soapy water. - Do not use polish (this may result in unwanted brightening of appearance). - For scratches, remove the panel and have it re-varnished by your dealer.
