Ventilation System
10.2 Windshield/Helm Ventilation
The windshield can be lowered to provide ventila-
tion at the helm and improved visibility. The wind-
shield is raised and lowered by hydraulic cylinders
activated by an electric hydraulic pump in the head
compartment bilge. The system is controlled by
the WINDSHIELD UP/DOWN switches in the helm
switch panel and touch screen display.
To lower the windshield, press and hold the
Windshield Down switch until the windshield is
lowered to the desired position, then release the
switch. To close the windshield, press and hold
the Windshield Up switch until the windshield is
completely closed. Always release the switch im-
mediately when windshield reaches the full down
or full up position.
A limit switch in the slide track prevents the wind-
shield wiper from operating while the windshield
is lowered. Always make sure the windshield is
in the full up position before attempting to use
the wiper.
10.3 Bilge & Aft systems
compartment Ventilation
Ventilation to the bilge and aft systems compart-
ment is provided by vents located on each side of
the cockpit liner, below the gunnels. The pressure
dierential created at the vents as the wind passes
over the cockpit provides adequate air movement
while operating at or near cruise speeds to reduce
odors and mildew. Make sure to keep these vents
clear and unobstructed.
