Pressurized Water System
Note that the water system is non-potable (not for
drinking). If installed the pressurized water system
may include a deck fill plate, water tank, hoses,
pressure pump and sediment filter, head sink w/
faucet and transom shower.
The aluminum water tank is located in the forward
center bilge. The pressure pump and sediment filter
are normally mounted in the bilge. Periodically clean
the filter and screen if installed. Reinstall filter and
check for leaks.
Shut the fill cap and line up the two dimples on the
cap and fill plate to seal the system from foreign
debris.
2. At the helm switch panel activate the water
system switch. This will energize the water pressure
pump to send water from the water tank through
the cold water lines terminating at the head faucet
and transom shower.
3. Open the head faucet. Water pressure should
be present. Opening the faucet for a few seconds
will purge any air in the system especially in cases
where the fresh water tank has run out of water.
When water is running at a faucet it is not unusual
to hear the water pump activate as it is trying to
build up the pressure required in the system. Soon
after the faucet is turned off the fresh water pump
sound will end indicating the water system is now
up to specified system pressure.
4. This entire water system is not meant for
consumption (non-drinkable) and
does not meet the requirements
of the U.S. Public Health Drinking
Water Standards. This symbol
found at the optional head and
transom shower is a reminder to
passengers not to drink the water. It is for cleaning
purposes only.
Using Pressurized Water System
1. The tank capacity varies by model. Fill the water
tank at the deck fill plate. You might want to use a
white hose manufactured specifically for pressurized
water. These hoses are available in 25, 50 and 100
foot increments at marinas, marine retailers, RV
dealers and big box stores. They do not leave marks
on the deck and do not carry a rubber odor. As you
look into the deck fill you will see a vent hole. Once
the tank is nearly full water will emerge from the vent
hole and re-enter the fill.
