Water Temperature
The water temperature gauge indicates the internal water temperature of your engine. Your engine is equipped
with a thermostat to quickly bring the engine up to its optimum operating temperature range. Read the engine
manual for exact readings. Your engines are equipped with an audio alarm system indicating an over-heat
immediately shut the engine off
condition. If the gauge or alarm indicates an over heat condition, . Then you
must close the seacock and open the water strainers to inspect for obstructions such as aquatic vegetation or mud.
After finding the source of the over heating, restart engine and confirm that the over heat problem has been solved
by monitoring the temperature gauges and listening for the audio alarm. The Eco Sound by pass tubes will allow
exhaust gases to escape by way of the 2" through hull fittings when the boat is not on plane. These fittings are
located above the water line and all the way aft on both of the hull sides. There will be no water flowing out of
these fittings, so it is important to monitor the gauge to determine if the cooling water is flowing freely through
the engine once again.
Oil Pressure
The oil pressure gauge should be checked immediately when starting the engine. The pressure range is available
in the engine manual. Your engines are equipped with an audio alarm system indicating a low oil pressure
condition. Follow the procedures recommended in the engine manual and if low oil pressure exists consult your
dealer.
Volt Meter
The voltmeter indicates battery voltage. A normal reading is between 12 to 15.5 volts.
Never leave port if the battery condition is not correct. You may not be able to restart your engines with batteries
that are not properly charged. Notify your dealer immediately if the gauge readings are not correct. Check battery
voltage prior to starting and again after the engine is running at idle to insure a properly working charging system.
Tachometer
The tachometer indicates the revolutions per minute (RPM) of your engine. Do not operate the engine beyond the
limits stated in your engine manual. Abnormally low tachometer readings (for a given throttle setting) indicate a
loss of engine performance. Check the prop first. A reading higher than normal indicates a ventilating or
cavitating propeller or propeller damage. Notify your dealer before operating your boat under these conditions.
Rudder Indicator
There is a sender installed on the starboard side aft that sends information to a gauge at the helm. This will
display the rudder position when the ignition is turned ON.
Speedometer
The speedometer indicates the speed of your boat in Miles per hour (MPH).
The gauge operates by sensing water impact pressure from the pitot tube mounted on the transom. If the gauge
fails to give a reading, check for a blocked or loose pickup.
Options
See your dealer for the options list for this model boat. Options installed at the factory will have operating and
maintenance instructions located in the important papers packet.

Windlass
Refer to the windlass manual for operation of the windlass. A 30 Amp breaker located next to the windlass switch
mounted on the console protects the Windlass.
Lights
For operation at night, your Pro-Line is equipped with navigation and anchor lights to indicate your position to
other boaters. While running after dark the navigation lights are required to be on and visible to other boaters.
Visually verify operation and lack of obstructions. Lights are also provided for the cockpit, bait-well, helm and
cabin.
