12.1 Head Compartment
The head compartment is equipped with a light,
fresh water sink and porcelain toilet with a holding
tank. A teak panel folds down above the marine
toilet to provide a seat. The panel is held in the up
position by a latch. Always make sure the panel
is in the down position when the toilet is not being
used and before operating the boat.
A rack on the forward bulkhead provides storage
for equipment and dunnage. Natural lighting and
fresh air is provided by an opening port window
on the side of the compartment and the compart-
ment door. Additional lighting is provided by a 12
volt light in the headliner controlled by a switch
on aft bulkhead. Ventilation is provided by the
opening port window above the marine toilet and
the compartment door.
The head compartment sole and sink drains to
the sump system where it is pumped overboard.
An automatic switch in the sump activates and
controls the pump. A removable grate in the oor
provides access to clean and service the sump
system.
There is a large hinged access door built into the
mirror on the rear bulkhead. The door provides
access to the back of the helm station to service
components. The fuses that protect some 12 volt
helm accessories and electronics are located in
fuse panels mounted in this compartment.
