Chapter 1: PROPULSION SYSTEM General Your Scout is designed to be powered with 2-cycle or 4-cycle outboard motors. 4-cycle outboard engines do not use an oil injection system and are not equipped with remote oil tanks. They have an oil sump in the crankcase that must be kept full of the type of oil recommended by the engine manufacturer.
Engine Lubrication 2-cycle outboard motors are lubricated by a variable ratio oil injection system. The oil tanks are mounted below the cockpit floor near the transom. Always monitor the oil level before each cruise by checking the gauge or indicator lights in the helm (not available on all engine installations) or visually checking the oil level using the reference marks on the tank.
The tachometer may not register zero with the key in the “OFF” position. Note: Most Scout boats are equipped with Yamaha engines and multifunction instruments. A brief Yamaha tachometers also contain the engine trim meter, oil description of those instruments and their function level indicator and the overheat warning indicator.

Speedometer Engine Alarms The speedometer indicates the speed of the boat in miles per All outboards are equipped with an audible alarm system hour. Most speedometers measure the water pressure against a mounted in the helm area that monitors selected critical engine small hole in a pickup tube located in the engine lower unit or systems.
Chapter 2: HELM CONTROL SYSTEMS General The helm controls consist of three systems: the engine throttle and shift controls, the steering system, and the trim tab control switches. These systems provide the operator with the ability to control the direction and attitude of the boat from the helm station.
Repeat this test with the shift levers in reverse and the engine THE ENGINE COWLINGS WILL HIT THE WAVE GATE throttles at idle. Again, the starter should not engage for either W H E N T H E E N G I N E S A R E T I LT E D TO T H E F U L L engine.
Steering System The steering system is hydraulic and made of three main com- ponents: the helm assembly, hydraulic hoses and a hydraulic steering cylinder. The helm unit acts as both a fluid reservoir and pump. Turning of the helm, or steering wheel, pumps the fluid in the hydraulic hoses and activates the hydraulic cylinder causing the motors to turn.
When running at high speeds be sure that the tabs are in the full “UP” position. Only enough trim plane action should be used to compensate for any listing. Trim tabs are extremely sensitive at high speeds. Adjust for this and be prepared to slow down if difficulties arise.
Chapter 3: FUEL SYSTEM General The gasoline fuel system used in Scout boats is designed to meet or exceed the requirements of the U.S. Coast Guard, the Boating Industry Association, and The American Boat and Yacht Council in effect at the time of manufacture.
Fueling Instructions Fuel Tank Vent There is a fuel tank vent fitting on the port side of the hull. While the tank is being filled, the air displaced by the fuel escapes through the vent. When the tank is full, fuel will be FUEL IS VERY FLAMMABLE.

Chapter 5: FRESH WATER SYSTEM General The fresh water system consists of a potable water tank, distri- bution lines and a distribution pump. The pump is equipped with an automatic pressure switch and is located in the bilge below the helm seat. The tank is filled through a labeled deck plate on the starboard side of the cockpit.
The Fresh Water Washdown Hose • The batteries must be properly maintained and charged. The washdown hose or quick connectors are located in the Operating the pressure pump from a battery with a low cockpit. There are two connectors, one for the fresh water charge could lead to pump failure.
Chapter 6: RAW WATER SYSTEM General In the raw or seawater systems, all water 12-volt pumps are supplied by hoses connected to ball valves and thru hull fit- tings located in the bilge below the cockpit. Always make sure the ball valves are open before attempting to operate any component of the raw water system.
The raw water washdown system is equipped with a strainer on the intake side of the pump located in the bilge below the cockpit. This should be checked frequently and cleaned as necessary. The Washdown Hose Connection The washdown hose or quick connectors are located in the cockpit.
Air Conditioning 6. 5 Raw Water System Maintenance (Optional) The air conditioner is self-contained and seawater cooled. An The following items should be done routinely to help maintain AC centrifugal raw water pump supplies seawater that cools your raw water system: the condensing unit as it circulates through the system and is discharged overboard.
Chapter 7: DRAINAGE SYSTEMS General All water is drained by gravity to overboard thru-hull fittings located in the hull above the water line. It is important to check the drain system frequently to ensure it is free flowing and that the hoses on the thru-hull fittings are secure and not leaking.
Rope Locker Drains Important: Any oil spilled in the bilge must be thor- oughly removed and properly disposed The rope locker drains overboard through a drain fitting located of before operating the bilge pump. The in the hull side at the bottom of the rope locker. It is important discharge of oil from the bilge is illegal to inspect the drain frequently to remove any accumulated and subject to a fine.
Chapter 8: VENTILATION SYSTEM Cabin Ventilation Ventilation to the cabin area is provided by a deck hatch and opening port windows. Deck Hatch The deck hatch is supported in the open position by an ad- justable hatch adjuster. To close the hatch, loosen the hatch adjuster and lower the hatch.
Carbon Monoxide and Proper common sense is still prudent and necessary. Remember, the operator of the boat carries the ultimate responsibility to make Ventilation sure the boat is properly ventilated and the passengers are not exposed to dangerous levels of carbon monoxide. You should always be alert to the symptoms and early warning signs of FA I LU R E T O P R O P E R LY V E N T I L AT E T H E B O AT carbon monoxide poisoning.
Maintenance • Periodically test the carbon monoxide alarm per the manufacturer’s instructions. • Periodically lubricate all hinges and latch assemblies with a light oil. • Periodically clean and coat gasket materials with silicone to help keep them pliable. • The opening cabin deck hatches, the cabin door hatch and the cabin door are made of acrylic plastic glass.
Chapter 9: EXTERIOR EQUIPMENT Deck Rails and Deck Hardware The rail system and hardware fittings have been selected and installed to perform specific functions. Hand rails are installed to provide a handhold in certain areas of the boat. You should make sure you keep at least on hand on the handholds as you move about the boat.
