NOTICE
Always winterize the fresh water system prior
to winterization of the hull drainage (bilge pump)
system.
Draining the system as mentioned can be very tedious
and an incomplete job can result in expensive repairs.
The use of non-toxic anti-freeze (such as R.V. anti-
freeze) designed for fresh water systems considerably
reduces the work necessary and is a more positive
means of winterizing the system. Follow the directions
included with the anti-freeze solution.
To winterize:
1. Turn on the water pump/faucet and drain the water
tank. The water tanks on some models can be
drained by removing the withdrawal hose from the
tank and allowing water to drain into the bilge.
NOTICE
DO NOT run the water pump without water in
the system. Pump damage can result. Be
watchful and turn the pump off as soon as the
tank becomes empty.
2. Add 1/2 gallon of R.V. anti-freeze to the water tank.
3. Turn ON the pump until undiluted antifreeze is seen.
Use only non-toxic anti-freeze solutions such
as R.V. anti-freeze. DO NOT use ethylene gly-
col solutions; the type that is used in engine cool-
ant systems. These are toxic.
NOTICE
Be sure to wipe up any anti-freeze that has been
spilled on the fiberglass surfaces to prevent pos-
sible discoloration or damage to the gel coat.
Depending upon options and model, additional informa-
tion by the equipment manufacturers is included in the
owner’s packet. Also, refer to Section O for Mainte-
nance.
