Accessing the bilge in the 277 is made easy. First, locate the controls for the electronic lift assist, labeled “Hatch”, mounted on
the starboard side of the tackle station directly across from the gunnel. Next, press and hold the top button on the controls. This
will cause the rear access to lift revealing the bilge access. To lower the hatch simply press and hold the bottom button on the
control panel until aft section is fully closed. Remember the electronic lift assist operates using the house battery system. Note
that the aft seat backrest must be removed to fully open the hatch. Failure to remove the backrest may result in damage
to the backrest and or the hatch lifting mechanism. In the event that the boat does not have power to electronically lift the
hatch, the electronic lift can be disengaged by lowering the bench seat and using the access opening shown below to remove
the pin from the electric ram. Keep in mind that at his point the hatch will no longer be supported in the up position and will
require being held up to maintain access to the bilge. Once the work in the bilge is finished and power is restored to the hatch
lift it is important to attach the ram to the hatch with the pin once again to secure the door in the closed position. See page 11
for access to the forward bilge.
