Operating Typical Standard Dockside Water System
At Mooring-Using Standard Dockside Water Inlet
Yachts without the optional electric hose water reel
system should perform the following steps to use dockside
water.
1. Verify that the dockside water is pure and safe to use.
2. Locate the dockside inlet valve. Unscrew the cap.
Connect a clean hose to the yacht's dockside water inlet
fi tting and the marina dockside water supply. A 50 foot
white hose (safe for carrying drinking water)should reach
most dockside faucets. Note: The dockside water inlet valve
uses a system in-line valve that keeps the water traveling in
one direction only.
3. Open the marina water supply faucet (spigot) which at
this point will distribute dockside water to the yacht.
4. It may be helpful to open an on board faucet to help
eliminate any air in the lines. Note that the pressure pump system
is not activated using the dockside water inlet system.

At Sea-Using Fresh Water Pressure Pump System
1. Energize the fresh water pump breaker at the ship's
main DC panel. This will permit water to fl ow to the
appropriate faucet or component.
Note: Remember that all fresh water at sea is being
delivered through the on board potable water tank.
Therefore, it is important to periodically check the fresh
water monitor for remaining on board quanities.
Operating Optional Electric Hose Reel System
Optional hose reel system permits dockside marina (city)
water to be used while the vessel is moored eliminating
the need to use the on board potable water system. The
system features the ability to return hoses both dockside
and wash down back into the reel electrically through a
motor and retrieval switch system.
Follow these steps to activate the system:
1. Verify that the water supply is safe and pure.
2. The dockside water inlet hose is located at the transom
on the 46. On the 42 it is located in the port transom
walk-through step locker. See illustration. Unscrew the
protective cap on the dockside inlet hose and pull the
length of hose needed to reach the dockside (marina)
water supply and connect to the marina faucet.
3. Open the marina water supply spigot (faucet) which at
this point will distribute dockside water to the yacht.
4.. Open onboard faucets as needed to help eliminate any
air in the lines.
5. When disconnecting use the switch to retrieve dockside
hose.
