Exterior Equipment
The back of the helm station is accessed through
a hatch in the large storage compartment just
forward of the helm. This hatch provides ac-
cess to service the helm equipment, accessory
switch panels and other components installed in
the helm. The circuit breakers that protect the
circuits activated by the helm switches and the
electronics are located in a panel just below the
helm access hatch.
Helm Storage Compartment
There are two matched acrylic doors secured with
ush, push to close latches that provide access
to the large storage compartment forward of the
helm. The outside door is used to close off the
walk-thru area below the opening windshield panel
when desired and is designed to “nest” to the stor-
age compartment door when it is open. To secure
the door in either position, push the door until the
latch catches. Both doors open simultaneously to
access the storage compartment when the walk-
thru door is nested to the storage compartment
door. Periodically clean and lubricate the latches
to protect them from corrosion and help keep them
operating properly.
A 12-volt light activated by the Cockpit Light
switch at the helm illuminates the compartment.
The compartment is equipped with special mount-
ing brackets for the cockpit table and bow ller
cushions. It is also where the ampliers for the
stereo options are mounted.
The door could be damaged or hurt a passenger
by the motion of the boat if it is allowed to swing
free. Always make sure the door is latched in
either position in rough water or when the boat
is underway.
Head Compartment
A large head compartment is located forward of
the passenger seat. A molded berglass door se-
cured with a lockable push to close latch provides
access to the compartment. A grab rail on the top
of the door provides a hand hold for passengers
and a lockable compartment provides storage for
small items.
The door could be damaged or hurt a passenger by
the motion of the boat if it is allowed to swing free.
It should be in the closed position and latched
when not being used, particularly in rough water
and whenever the boat is underway. When closing
the door, make sure you push the door against
the door jam with enough pressure to allow the
latch to secure the door. Periodically clean and
