Fuel-Water Separator & Drain
Fuel-Water Separator
A Yamaha Fuel-Water Separator is installed behind the rear seat
assembly. Simply locate the controls for the electronic lift assist,
labeled “Hatch”, mounted on the starboard side of the tackle
station directly across from the gunwale, and you will be able to
easily access the Fuel-Water separator. The new, improved 10-
micron filter provides superior filtration ahead of the engine's
on-board filters and injectors. Large filtering and water capture
areas maximize filtration while maintaining adequate flow rate
for larger engines. The fuel separator can be checked by removing it from the mounting
bracket and dumping it into an approved waste collection device. If there appears to be
an excessive amount of water, the filter component should be replaced. See your
authorized Cobia Dealer for replacement parts.
Garboard Drain Plug
The garboard drain plug is the small metal plug located at
the lowest point on the hull, at the bottom of the transom
right above the keel. The drain has been designed so that it
can be loosened by hand while the hull is out of the water
for draining. This allows the plug to stay in contact with
the surrounding frame so you’ll never misplace or lose it. You can completely remove
the insert by pulling back and continue turning in a counter-clockwise motion. It is
manufactured with a rubber seal in place to ensure your bilge is watertight. Always
make sure before putting the boat in the water that this plug is hand tightened firmly.
Excess water in the bilge may be an indication of a problem with this plug or the
automatic bilge pump. (Refer to Water Drain System diagram, page 36).
micron fuel filter on new boats after the first 10 hours or 1 month of
operation and every 50 hours or every 6 months thereafter. In
areas of high humidity where water in fuel supplies is a problem or
extensive engine operation occurs, more frequent replacement
