Bilge Pump
• Your boat has a bilge pump for pumping
water out of the bilge.
• An autofloat switch, mounted next to the
bilge pump, will turn On the bilge pump if
bilge water rises above a preset level.
• You can also turn On the bilge pump your-
self using the switch at the helm.
• The bilge pump is wired directly to the bat-
tery. Unless the battery is dead, the bilge
pump should work even when your boat is
unattended.
NOTICE
Discharge of oil, oil waste, or fuel into navigable waters is prohibited by law. Violators are sub-
ject to legal action by the local authorities.
