Raw Water System
Raw Water Washdown
A raw water washdown is located on the port side
of the helm seat base. The hose is on a retractable
reel that is long enough to reach the front or rear
of the cockpit. To use the washdown hose, make
sure the Raw water pressure pump is activated.
Then open the hose compartment cover and pull
the nozzle and hose out of the tting to the desired
length. Allow the hose to retract very slowly until
the reel locks. Activate the valve on the hose
nozzle to turn the water on and o.
When washdown operations are complete, release
the nozzle to turn o the water and pull the hose
out slightly to release the reel lock. Keep steady
pressure on the hose and allow it to retract until
the nozzle seats in the recess.
Make sure the Raw Water switch is on before using
the washdown hose.
DO NOT ALLOW THE WATER PUMP TO RUN DRY. THE
PUMP WORKS ON DEMAND AND WILL NOT SHUT OFF
AUTOMATICALLY IF NO WATER IS AVAILABLE. THIS CAN
RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE PUMP. ALWAYS TURN THE
RAW WATER SWITCH OFF WHEN THE RAW WATER SYSTEM
IS NOT IN USE.
Windlass Compartment Washdown
The raw water washdown hose connection in the
windlass compartment uses a standard garden
hose connection. It is equipped with a valve that
allows the ow of water to be turned on or o at
the hose connection.
Make sure the Raw Water switch in the helm
switch panel is on before using the washdown
hose and that the washdown faucet valve or hose
spray nozzles are o when the raw water system
is activated.
