Chapter 5: Plumbing
Bilge Pumps
Discharge of oil, oil waste or fuel into navigable waters is prohibited by law. Violators are
subject to legal action by the local authorities.
• Your boat is equipped with two automatic impeller-type bilge pumps which are used to pump water out
of the bilge.
• The bilge pumps are controlled by automatic bilge pump float switches (autofloat switches) and/or switches
at the helm.
• The bilge pumps are wired directly to the battery so they will normally function even when the boat is completely
shut down and left unattended.
