Bilge Pumps

Discharge of oil, oil waste, or fuel into navigable waters is prohibited by law. Violators are sub-
ject to legal action by the local authorities.
• Your boat has two bilge
pumps for pumping
water out of the bilge.
• Built-in autofloat
switches turn On the
bilge pumps if bilge
water rises above a
preset level.
• You can also turn On
the bilge pumps using
the switches at the
helm.
• The bilge pumps are
wired directly to the
batteries. Unless the
batteries are dead, the
bilge pump system
should keep working
even when your boat
is unattended.
