Your boat comes with CO detectors installed in all sleep-
ing areas. The CO monitors are immediately energized
from the battery banks. A 5 amp pop-out breaker labeled
“CO Alarm” protects them from a power fault. Please
refer to the Safety chapter of this manual for a thorough
discussion on the hazards and precautions of this dan-
gerous gas.
NOTE: Consult the CO detector manufacturer’s OEM manual
for detector operation, care and maintenance.
NOTE: Do not spray waxes or cleaning agents on the CO
monitors.

7.3.1.7 Stereo Memory Breaker
With the optional stereo comes the need for maintaining
the stereo memory for channeling and clock. The stereo
memory is immediately energized from the battery banks.
Consequently, a 10 amp pop-out breaker is integrated
within the battery switch panel to protect the stereo from
a power fault.
7.3.1.8 Electric Shift Breaker
Not used.
7.3.1.8 Bow Thruster Breaker
The breaker for the optional bow thruster protects the
thruster system from a power fault. This 20 amp pop-out
breaker is labeled “Bow Thruster”.
7.3.1.8.1 Basic Thruster Operation
Refer to Underwater Gear section of this manual for
additional details about the bow thruster installed on your
boat.
Choose the single battery power source by position-
ing the House Battery selector switch to “ON” or the
combined battery power source by positioning the
House Battery selector switch to “COMBINED” (5
o’clock) and the Start Battery selector switch to “ON”
(3 o’clock).
Position the “DC Main” breaker switch on the Battery
Switch Panel to the “On” position.
Press the Enablement Button on the thruster control

7.3.1.9 Engine Compartment Blower Breaker
The breaker for the engine compartment blower protects
this ventilation system from a power fault. The 10 amp
pop-out breaker is labeled “Blower”.
Ventilation is very important within your boat. Given
the potential hazards of Carbon Monoxide buildup (See
Boating Safety chapter in this manual) on one hand, and
the simple comfort of fresh air or air conditioning on the
other, ventilation is a necessary standard.
On your boat, there are essentially three categories of
ventilation:
Air conditioning system
Hatches and dorade vents
Engine compartment blower
The air conditioning system is AC powered (see AC
Electric chapter in this manual). The hatches are manual
and require no power.
The engine compartment blower is an exhaust fan which
removes exhaust fumes and hot air from the engine com-
partment. This in-line blower pushes air from the engine
compartment through a 4” hose to a vent located in the
