Operating Typical Standard Dockside Water System
At Mooring-Using Standard Dockside Water Inlet
1. Verify that the dockside water is pure and safe to use.
2. Locate the dockside inlet valve at the port aft deck.
Unscrew the cap. Connect a clean hose to the boat’s
dockside water inlet fi tting and the marina dockside water
supply. A 50 foot white hose (safe for carrying drinking
water)should reach most dockside faucets.
Note: The dockside water inlet valve uses a system in-line
valve that keeps the water traveling in one direction only.
3. Open the marina water supply faucet (spigot) which at
this point will distribute dockside water to your boat.
4. It may be helpful to open an on board faucet to help
eliminate any air in the lines.
Note that the pressure pump system is not activated using the dockside
water inlet system.
TYPICAL DOCKSIDE WATER INLET
At Sea-Using Fresh Water Pressure Pump System
1. Energize the fresh water system breaker at the ship’s
main DC panel. This will permit water to fl ow to the
appropriate faucet or component.
Note: Remember that all fresh water at sea is being
delivered through the on board potable water tank.
Therefore, it is important to periodically check the fresh
water monitor for remaining on board quanities.
Conserve as much potable water as possible when
crusing by taking shorter showers and save rinising off
deck and hull if possible until you retrun to port.
