11.7 Upper Station (Optional)
The sport upper station is a powder coated, welded
aluminum frame that is attached topside of the
hardtop. It is equipped with a second station that
provides full control of the boat from the upper
helm.
The full upper station is a powder coated, welded
aluminum frame that is also attached topside of
the hardtop. It is equipped with a larger second
control station that provides full control of the boat
from the upper helm and a sunshade. A hinged ac-
cess panel on the underside of the helm provides
access to service helm equipment and electrical
circuits on either station.
A ladder built into the center rear of the hardtop
provides access to the upper station from the cock-
pit. The rear jump seat and top of the workstation
are incorporated into the upper station access sys-
tem to provide steps to the ladder. There are also
steps welded to the rear hardtop legs and bolted to
the work station. Grab Rails provide hand holds for
safety. An access hatch in the hardtop above the
ladder is opened when accessing the upper station
and closed for safety during operation.
The access hatch is supported in the open position
by a gas spring. It is secured in the closed position
by two twist action cam levers on the bottom and
top of the hatch. There is a sliding lock on each
bottom cam lever to prevent them from opening
accidentally.
To open the hatch, release the lock and rotate each
cam lever to the open position. The gas spring will
automatically lift the hatch to the full open posi-
tion. To close the hatch, push or pull the hatch to
the full down position and secure it in the closed
position with the cam latches. Always secure the
hatch in the closed position when people are in the
upper station.
