GETTING FAMILIAR WITH
YOUR 352 MOTOR YACHT
________________
This section of your Owner’s Manual will
give you a virtual tour of your new 352 MY.
The following areas will be described: Hull,
Deck, Interior and Engine Compartment.
HULL AND TRANSOM
The photograph below displays the transom
area of the 352 MY . This is a typical layout
displaying the drive mechanism. The pho-
tograph contains the following components
as viewed from the Port side:
Shaft
Strut
Propeller
Rudders
Note: On diesel powered yachts, there is an
additional strut forward of the one displayed
below. The purpose of this extra strut is to
provide additional support to the shaft.
The Shaft is connected to the engine trans-
mission with a coupling and extends through
the bottom of the hull, where it is connected
to the propeller.
The shaft is supported forward of the pro-
peller by one or two Struts, depending on
engine model. The struts support and sta-
bilize the shafts.
The rotation of the Propellers propels the
yacht in the selected direction, controlled
from the helm station.
The Rudders provide steering for the yacht
to Port or Starboard, depending on the di-
rection they are turned by the operator from
the helm station steering wheel.
The Zinc Anodes are dealer installed on
the shafts, rudders and transom for the
purpose of preventing electrolysis and gal-
vanic corrosion, which is discussed in the
Winterization and Storage Section of this
Owner’s Manual.
