Revised/Updated March 2011
chart chip is totally separate from the C-80 and the WP's will not be duplicated. But depth,
wind speed, etc can be read and in an anchorage your location can be monitored.

VHF Radio

ESCAPE
The VHF radio call sign for is WCZ2587 and is also printed on a label above the
radio. PLEASE use the radio properly. Violations are "EXPENSIVE"..! Guidelines for
proper use of the radio are included in the Grey AYC Manual.
The FCC has shut down all telephone use connected with VHF radios, in other words there
are no more marine telephone operators.
In normal cruising areas it is also possible to use most Cellular phone networks, reducing the
need to utilize the VHF system for non boat-to-boat conversations.

WATER SYSTEM

There are two water tanks with a total 90 gallons of water. The tank designated as Tank #1 is
located below the port side aft berth. The filler port for Tank #1 is located on the port side
transom above the swim platform. The tank designated as Tank #2 is located below the bed
in the "V" berth. The filler port for Tank #2 is located on the deck forward of the anchor rode
locker lid. The caps have a pop-up handles to assist in unscrewing the cap. The caps are
attacked to a chain anchored to the fill spout. When replacing the cap please do not over
tighten the cap, it should only be snug using your fingers. When filling the water tanks do
not leave the hose in the filler spout unattended.
The fresh water system operates utilizing a pressure water pump. The pressure water pump
is located in the cabinet in the head. The pressure water pump serves to produce pressure
water for the entire hot and cold-water circulation system.
The Water Pump switch, #10 on the electrical panel, must be in "On" position to obtain water
pressure to have either hot or cold water.
The valve to switch from one tank to the other is located behind the right cupboard door in
the head. The valve has a red handle. When the handle is pointing forward the water is being
drawn from the forward tank. To begin drawing water from the aft tank, the valve must be
turned until it is pointing upward.
Each sink drain is equipped with a through-hull valve. If a sink does not drain, check to
ensure the valve is in the open position (handle parallel to drain hose rather than
perpendicular). For safety reasons the valves should remain closed when not in use while
sailing. Under extreme healing the sinks may overflow so the valves should be closed if
those conditions arise.
The hot-cold wash-down hose at the swim platform is located on the port side transom. The
main water system pressure switch must be turned on for this hose to operate.
