Equipment Operation
To let out the anchor with the emergency handle, insert
the handle in the gypsy. Unlock the gypsy just enough so
the anchor will start to let out.
To retrieve the anchor, tighten the gypsy lock. Insert the
handle into the other hexagon hole and crank the handle
in a counterclockwise direction to bring the anchor up.
Be sure you use the engines to first break the anchor free
from the bottom Watch the anchor as it approaches the
bow to avoid damage.
MASTHEAD LIGHT/RADAR ARCH
The masthead light hinges up
from the radar arch. Simply
tighten the knob to hold in a
vertical position. When used as
part of the navigation lights, the
front is lighted. When anchor-
ing, both front and rear posi-
tions are lighted for 360 degree
visibility.
The radar arch offers an oppor-
tunity to mount the boat’s an-
tennas for the best reception. The
round saucer looking antenna is the
television antenna. The other antenna
is for the GPS/Plotter and is mounted
on the starboard radar arch. The arch
contains speakers and lights con-
trolled by the switch panel located in
the shorepower locker. Vessels w/o
a radar arch use alternate locations to
mount the various antennas.

WINDSHIELD WIPER/LATCH
Your Regal
features a
panographic
wiper which
keeps the
blade forced
against the
tempered
windshield
glass for im-
proved cov-
erage. Do not operate the wiper with a dry windshield. The
wiper motor is accessed by removing the inside hatch deck
ring and the screws under the lights at the headliner panel.
The center windshield needs to be latched while the vessel
is in motion. To latch the center windshield, turn the two
locks to a full horizontal position.
The compass is set at
the manufacturer to
ensure its accuracy. If
in doubt it can be
zeroed in by using a
non-magnetic type
screwdriver and
adjusting each of the
compensator screws as
recommended. Refer
to the compass manual
in the owner’s information pouch. Also, a compass can be
checked while underway for variance and deviation by
comparing your heading with a nautical chart. Compass
error is part of the calculation.
