10.1 Head Compartment Ventilation
Cabin Door
Ventilation to the cabin is provided by opening the
cabin door and window. The cabin door is located
in the starboard side of the center console. Make
sure the door is fully latched in the closed posi-
tion before operating the boat above idle speed.
Before using the head in hot weather, it is best
to open the door for several minutes to provide
maximum ventilation and cool the head compart-
ment as much as possible.
There are two rotating latches that secure the
door when it is closed. Make sure the door is
closed and secured with both latches when the
head compartment is not being used and before
operating the boat above idle speed.
NEVER LEAVE THE CABIN DOOR UNLATCHED. THE CABIN
DOOR IS HEAVY AND CLOSES EASILY. IF THE DOOR IS
LEFT UNLATCHED, IT COULD SLAM UNEXPECTEDLY AS
THE BOAT ROCKS, DAMAGING THE DOOR OR CAUSING AN
INJURY TO A PASSENGER. ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE DOOR
IS PROPERLY LATCHED IN THE CLOSED POSITION WHEN
THE HEAD COMPARTMENT IS NOT BEING USED.
Port Window
An opening port window is located in the side
of the head compartment. The port window is
equipped with a screen and secured in the closed
position with twist action locks. The locks should
be adjusted so they are tight enough to seal the
window in the closed position, but not so tight
that they break the plastic.
Always make sure the window is closed and se-
cured with the cam levers whenever the boat is
underway. Sea spray could enter the head com-
partment through the open window and damage
equipment or items stowed there.
