Each float switch is equipped with two plastic knobs located on either side of the switch. Turn either one of the
knobs to raise the float to engage the bilge pump. If the pump comes on, the automatic float is operating
properly. It is recommended that you check the operation of each automatic float switch monthly.
Keep the bilge area clean and free from debris that could clog ports or inhibit float movement. Also, keep the
battery (starboard) that provides power to the bilge pumps charged. If the battery is not charged and flooding
occurs, the boat could swamp causing damage and possible loss of life or property.
If for some reason the indicator light on your bilge pump switch comes on, check your bilge for water. It is not
uncommon for rain water or water from washing your boat to accumulate in the bilge. Standing water will activate
the automatic float that is connected to the bilge pump. If you notice your pump running frequently during your
day on the water, you should check the thru hull fittings, hose connections, etc. for any possible leaks.

High Water Alarm

A high water alarm switch is mounted on the console and is wired to bilge pump 2.
The switch should be kept in the auto alarm position (to the left).
automatic float switch activates bilge pump 2, the alarm will sound. If the alarm
should sound, as a precaution, check the bilge area immediately to determine if
emergency action should be taken. The toggle switch may be turned to the override
position (to the right) to deactivate the alarm.

Baitwell Pump

The baitwell switch at the helm controls the baitwell pump (1100 gph), which
is mounted on a seacock in the bilge area. The baitwell pump and seacock
are accessible through the bilge hatch. Raw water for the baitwell tub comes
through the seacock, to the baitwell pump and then to the baitwell tub.
Before turning the pump on from the helm, check to be sure that the seacock
is open. The seacock is wide open when the yellow seacock lever is vertical.
When the yellow seacock lever is horizontal, the seacock is closed. The
seacock should remain closed when the baitwell pump is not in use.
In the photo to the right, the baitwell pump is shown with the seacock in the
closed position. The hose on the lower port feeds raw water to the washdown
pump.
To operate the baitwell pump, locate the baitwell switch on the console and press the switch to the forward
position to turn on the pump. When the baitwell pump is operating, go to the baitwell tub, open the baitwell lid and
visually check to see if water is pumping into the tub through the aerator fitting. This will ensure that the baitwell
pump is working properly. The hose that goes from the baitwell pump to the baitwell tub is routed behind the
starboard aft wall of the mid berth.
To turn the baitwell pump off, press the baitwell switch to the aft
position. You should always turn the baitwell switch off at the
helm if the pump is not going to be used soon.
The 25 gallon capacity baitwell tub is located aft of the helm seat.
It comes equipped with an aerator head, 2 overflow drains that
allow circulation to keep bait alive, a plug for the drain and a
baitwell light.
In addition to the baitwell tub, the bait station includes a sink, raw
water washdown, grab rail and areas to hold a bar of soap, knife
and pliers
