BEFORE EACH USE
Before Starting the Engine
Review the engine manual before each outing to determine the
drive train requirements that need to be followed prior to each use.
Review the Safety Checks and Services section of this Owner’s
Manual. There are important functions that must be followed before,
during and after every outing:
• Inspect the raw water intake strainer for blockage. If there is
blockage, also check the transmission cooler (where equipped).
• Check and clean the seacock strainer as necessary.
• Check the cooling system level. See the engine owner’s manual
for details.
• Inspect the battery connections and hold-downs.
• Inspect the drive train for loose or missing hardware.
• Inspect the throttle and shift cables for kinks, wear and interfer-
ence with other components.
• Inspect the propeller shaft log for excessive water entry.
• Inspect the fuel system lines and connections for leaks.
• Check for water leaks or excessive exhaust odor.
• As you start the engine, check that the voltage reading registers
a fully charged battery.
AFTER EACH USE
Refer to the Cleaning the Boat and Corrosion Prevention sections of
this Owner’s Manual for guidance on a thorough approach to main-
tenance. Also pay attention to the information provided regarding
the maintenance of teak platforms and accessories, because the
wood requires periodic maintenance as well.
Boats equipped with an optional flushing system for use in salt
water or brackish water should operate the flushing system.
