Keep such weight to a reasonable minimum. When
accessories or extra items are added, consider their
weight and select their localion to maintain the
desired trim of the boat. fore, aft and athwartship. A
drop in RPM will be noted as weight is added, and it

 SAFETY
The freedom of boating is a magnificent feeling.
However, fun can be overtaken by disaster if you
ignore safety precautions. This manual presents
basic guidelines. but it cannot describe every
possible risk you may encounter. You are strongly
urged to:
• Take a boating safety course.
• Get hands-on training from your boat dealer.
• Regularly review safety requirements.
• Maintain your boat and its systems.
• Have your boat inspected at least annually by a
qualified mechanic or dealer.

£FIRE
Fire is always serious, but it usually can be brought
under control if you are prepared and act quickly.
Extinguishers required by the Coast Guard or other
boating law enforcement agency are only the
minimum needed. Install fire extinguishers where
they might be needed, and test equipment and
emergency plans regularly.
Prevention is the safest method of fighting fires.
Remember:
• Use extreme caution while fueling.
• Refrain from smoking while fueling.
• Use only marine safety approved cooking and
healing systems.
• Open flames demand constant attention.
• Run exhaust blowers at least 4 minutes before
starting engine.
• Use "sniff test" to check for fumes in bilge and
engine compartment.
• Store flammable material in safety-approved
containers.
• Keep flammable material containers in a locker
sealed from the interior of the boat and vented
overboard.
• Ensure ventilation systems are unobstructed.
• Remove canvas before starting engine.
• Ensure fuel does not leak.
• Extinguish smoking material carefully.
• Use special care with flames or high
temperature near urethane foam.
• Check cleaning products for flammability.
• Ventilate when cleaning or painting.
• Disconnect electrical system from its power
source before performing maintenance. (See
Section 7 - Electrical.)
• Replace breaker or fuse with same amperage
device.
• Electrical appliances must be within the rated
amperage of boat circuits.
• Observe the boat carefully while the electrical
system is energized.
• Only a qualified manne electrical technician may
service the boat's electrical system.

FIRE SUPPRESSION EQUIPMENT
General
• Fire suppression equipment can be eitherfbcad
or portable. Fixed systems are located In
machinery compartments. They should be
supplemented by portable extinguishers
mounted at key sites, for example, near the
engine compartment, galley and helm.
• Coast Guard or other boating law enfon::enlent
agency regulations govern the number and type
of devices on board. (See Safety - Minimum
Required Equipment.)
Fixed System
• Fire extinguishant is installed permanently in
one or more machinery spaces. In the ewnt of
a fire, a sensor releases fire-killing extinguishant
in the compartment.
• Fixed system is wired to the ignition and turns
on with the engine.
• An indicator light on the dash is lit when the fire
suppression system is available. The light goes
out when the system discharges.
• See Section 8 - Automatic Fire Extinguisher
Systems.
Portable Extinguishers
Fire extinguishers are classified according to fire
type:
• "A" - Combustible solids (wood, plastic)
• ·'B"' - Flammable liquids (oil, gasoline)
• ·'C"' - Electrical fires
Sizes are identified by Roman numerals - from I
(smallest) to V (largest). Small size provides only a
few seconds of firefighting capability.
Test fire extinguishers according to manufacturer's
instructions. Do not test by squirting small amounts
of the agent; the extinguisher might not work when
needed.
FLOODING, SWAMPING
Flooding or swamping can be caused by many
factors. Operator disregard for hazardous weather
and water conditions 1s one of the most common
causes, along with improper loading, handling and
anchoring. Be aware of tr.e possible consequences
of your actions. Have everyone wear a oersonal
flotation dev:ce 'Nher-. ::::oa: 1 ng.
16
Remember:
• Certification plate states maximum wei§htl'
number of persons the boat will handle safely
•
•
under normal conditions. Give yourself an extra
margin in rough water. (See Safety - Load
Capacity.)
Install drain plugs before launching.
Ensure proper bilge pump operation .
'
• Anchor from bow if using only one anchor.
• Match speed to sea conditions .
• Adjust trim and close openings in rough weather.
• Reverse engine only when headway slows to
prevent following sea from swamping boat.
• Operate boat within maneuvering speed
limitations.
LIFESAVING EQUIPMENT
Wear a personal flotation device (PFD) when
boating. Boat operators are required to carrii' one
wearable personal flotation device (Type I, II, Ill or
V) for every person on board. Boats must also have
at least one throwable device (Type IV).
Classifications of PFDs are:
• Off-Shore Life Jacket (Type I) - most buoyant, it
is designed to turn an unconscious person face
up; used in all types of waters where rescue
maybe slow.
• Near-Shore Life Vest (Type II) - "keyhole" vest
with flotation-filled head and neck support is also
designed to turn a person face up, but the
turning action is not as pronounced; used in
calm, inland waters or where quick rescue is
likely.
• Flotation Aid (Type Ill) - vest is designed so
conscious wearers can turn face up; often
designed for comfort while engaged in sports
such as skiing.
• Throwable Devices (Type IV) - horseshoe
buoys, ring buoys and buoyant cushions are
designed to be grasped, not worn.
Special-Use Devices (Type V) - sailboat
harnesses, white-water vests, float coats, and
hybrid vests which have minimum inherent
buoyancy and an inflatable chamber.
When purchasing PFDs, look for an attached tag
saying they are approved by the U.S. Coast Guard
or by your national boating law enforcement agency.
Children and non-sw1mrrers must wear PFDs at all
times when aboard All passengers and crew should
wear 1hem. ,;inc8 a loose PFD 1s 0ften ·Jseless 1n an

• Children and non-swimmers must wear PFDs
at all times when aboard. All passengers and
crew should wear them, since a loose PFD is
often useless in an emergency. The law requires
that PFDs, if not worn, must be readily
accessible, that is, removed from storage bags
and unbuckled. Throwable devices must be
readily available, that is, right at hand. The
operator is responsible for instructing everyone
aboard on their location and use.
MANEUVERING/MAINTAINING
CONTROL
.._: DANGER
EXTREME HAZARD - Ensure adequate
ventilation. Gasoline powered engines
produce odorless, colorless carbon monoxide
gas (CO). Prolonged exposure can cause
serious injury or death. Symptoms Include
dizziness, nausea, drowsiness. To reduce
accumulation of CO, increase air movement
by opening windows or adjusting canvas. The
following conditions require special attention:
Operating at slow speed or dead in the water
Operating with the bow high
Operating engine in confined spaces. Be
aware of possible CO from nearby boats in
a confined docking area
Using canvas curtains
Blocking hull exhausts
Winds blowing exhaust toward boat
occupants
CONTROL HAZARD
A qualified operator must be in control of
the boat at all times.
I
• Always operate boat within maneuvering
speed limitations.
• Exercise constant attention to the boat's
direction when underway.
Always keep a firm grip on the steering
control.
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
When underway, keE'p F II engers clear of areas
not desigued for riding. Especially lwwwdous
areas include seat backs, bow, gunwale, 11'111180111

SPEED HAZARD
• Operate boat at speeds within ablllty to {
maintain control and react if an emergency
occurs. (,
Reduce speed at night, in congested
waterways and when weather and sea
conditions warrant.
Watch your wake. It might capsize a small
craft. You are responsible for damage
caused by your wake.
COLLISION HAZARD - Turn on navigation

Visibility
• Law requires the operator to "maintain a proper
lookout by sight (and hearing)."
• Operator must insist on unobstructed vision,
particularly to the front. Move passengers or
load if they block the view when the boat is abolle

' Trimming
MANEUVERING/CONTROL HAZARD -
Adjust to an intermediate trim as soon as
boat is on plane to avoid possible spinout.
Do not attempt to turn boat when drive is
trimmed extremely down/under/in.
------,:--..:
·•
• Power trim on stern drives enables you to
change the angle of your drive unit by pressing
a button. See Instruments & Controls - Power
Trim & Tilt Operation in this manual for a
complete discussion of characteristics resulting
from different trim settings.
• Power trim is designed to give quick acceleration
with minimum time in the bow-up transition to
planing. This is most easily accomplished by
trimming the drive unit fully down/under/in and
setting the throttle at moderate to maximum.
• Once on plane, trim the drive unit up/out slightly
to avoid a bow-down condition called "plowing,"
Plowing can cause inefficient and unpredictable
"bow steering" or "oversteering." In this
condition, attempting to turn or encountering a
moderate wave may result in an abrupt turn or
spinout.
• Trimming the drive unit too far up/out can cause
a bow-up condition leading to "porpoising"
(bouncing) or propeller ventilation. If you notice
a sudden increase in propeller speed, reduce
engine RPM and trim the drive unit down/under/
in until propeller ventilation stops.
• In most cases, best performance is obtained
with the drive unit positioned so that the boat

• Hydraulic tabs at the transom also control trim.
Use short bursts of rocker switches to adjust
trim tabs. Pushing switches too far at once may
cause sudden steering problems. Adjusting one
trim tab more than the other will adjust list
caused by improper storage, too many people
on one side or a strong cross wind.
Swimming, Skiing, Diving
• Do not swim from a moving boat.
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
• Keep clear of are·as designated for
swimming, skiing or diving. Recognize
markers used for such areas.

• If a lightning storm approaches, the safest action
is to dock and disembark. If you cannot return
to shore, seek shelter inside the boat and
remain there until the storm passes.
• Stay out of the weter during a lightning
storm. If caught swimming during a storm, get
back into the boat and remain there until the
storm passes.
FLOAT PLAN
• File a float plan with a friend or relative about
where you intend to cruise. Give a good
description of the boat. Advise of any changes
in cruise plans.
• These precautions will enable your friend or
relative to tell the Coast Guard or your national
boat agency where to search for you and what
type of boat to look for if you fail to return.
• Advise the same person when you complete
your trip to prevent false alarms about your
safety.
WARNING LABELS
Warning labels are mounted at key locations to
advise you of safety precautions when operating or
servicing equipment. Do not remove or cover
warning labels. Replace when illegible. See the
Parts Manual for replacement part numbers and

FUEL & OIL SPILLAGE
Regulations prohibit discharging fuel or oily waste
in navigable waters. Discharge is defined as any
action which causes a film, sheen or discoloration
on the water surface, or causes a sludge or emulsion
beneath the water surface. A common violation Is
bilge discharge. Use rags or sponges lo soak up
fuel or oily waste, then dispose of it properly ashore.
If there is much fuel or oil in the bilge, contact a
knowledgeable marine service to remove it. Never
pump contaminated bilge overboard. Help protect
your waters.
Fill tank(s) less than rated capacity. Allow for fuel
expansion.
WASTE DISPOSAL
Do not place facial tissues, paper towels or
sanitary napkins in head. Such material can
damage the waste disposal system and the
environment.
NOTICE
There is a possibility of being fined for
having an operable direct overboard
discharge of waste in some waters.
Removing seacock handle, in closed
position, or other means must be used to
avoid fine.
II is illegal for any vessel to dump plastic

The time to think about emergencies is before they
happen. Plan ahead. Know what to do before you
encounter any of these situations. Wear a PFD
when boating.
EXPLOSION/FIRE/ASPHYXIATION
• Open flame cooking appliances consume
oxygen. This can cause asphyxiation or
death.
Maintain open ventilation.
Liquid fuel may ignite, causing severe
burns.
• Use fuel appropriate for type of stove.
• Tum off stove burner before fllllng.
• Do not use stove for comfort heating.
FIRE/ASPHYXIATION HAZARD - Use special
care with flames or high temperature near
urethane foam used in construction of your boat.
Burning, welding, lights, cigarettes, space
heaters and the like can ignite urethane foam.
Once ignited, it burns rapidly, producing extreme
heat, releasing hazardous gases and consuming
much oxygen.
• Do not open engine hatch as this feeds oxygen
to the fire.
• If you have access to fire, direct contents of
extinguishers at base of flames, not at the top.
• Throw burning materials overboard if possible .
• Move anyone not needed for firefighting
operations away from the flames.
• Signal for help .
• Put on PFDs, grab distress signals and survival
gear, and prepare to abandon ship.
Abandoning Ship
BURN HAZARD - Swim against the current or
wind If you abandon ship. Laaldng fuel will float
with the current and may Ignite.
• When clear of danger, account for all who were
on board, and help those in need.
• Use distress signal.
• Keep everyone together to make rescue easier.

GROUNDING
Action depends on how hard the boat Ms bottom
and whether the bOat remains stranded. If it is. a
s,mple touch, you may need only to inspect the hull.
If you are aground, assess the situation before
reacting. In some cases. throwing the boat into
reverse can cause more damage.
Basic Guidelines
• Inspect damage to hull. propulsion and steering
systems.
• Check for leaks. If water is coming in. stopping
the flow takes priority over getting free.
• Determine water depth all around the boat and
type of bottom (sand, mud, rocks, etc.). This will
help you decide which way to move the boat.
• Determine if tide, wind or current will drive the
boat harder aground or will help free ~-
LEAKS
• Immediately switch on bilge pumps.
• Assign crew to operate manual pumps if
needed.
Check extent of leaks.
• If boat is taking on water, have someone take
the helm while you manage damage control.
Slow or stop to minimize inflow. However, if
you can keep a hole above water by maintaining
speed. do so
If possible. patch the outside with whatever
material 1s available.
TOWING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD - Towing or
being towed stresses the boats, hardware and
lines. Failure of any part can seriously injure
people or damage the boat.
NOTICE
While being towed, you must close all main
engine and generator engine seacocks to
prevent water from being forced into the
j engine's exhaust and causing internal damage.
A recreatiOnai boat towing another il':IIIS!~'••·'"'i•

boats. The Coast Guard or a private' silNage'
company is better equipped. A recreational boat ••
may assist by standing by, and possibly keeping the
disabled boat's bow at a proper angle until help
arrives. Only when conditions are ideal - that is,
seas are calm, disabled boat is small, and one or
both skippers know correct techniqua - should a
recreational boat tow another.
Towing Vessel
• Be sure your boat will not run aground too.
• Because you are maneuverable and the
grounded boat is not. you should pass the
towline to the grounded boat.
• Use double-braided or braid-on-braid line.
Never use three-strand twisted nylon; it has too
much elasticity and can snap back dangerously.
• Fasten the towline as far forward as possible
on the upwind or up-current side of the towing
boat. Fastening it to the stern will restrict
maneuverability of the towing boat.
• If possible, use a bridle.
• Move slowly to prevent sudden strain on slack
line.
• Be ready to cast loose or cut the line if the towing
situation becomes hazardous.
Vessel Being Towed
•
• Attach the towline to the bow eye, forward bitt
or cleats if the fitting can take the load.
• If the boat has eyebolts in the transom for pulling
skiers. a towline may be attached to a small
bridle hooked to both eyebolts.
If it is necessary to be towed after being freed.
keep someone at the wheel to steer.
Both Vessels
If you secure the towline to a fitting, be sure the
fitting 1s fastened with a through bolt and is
reinforced on the underside.
• Creating a bridle with a line around the hull or
superstructure will distribute the load over a wide
area; pad pressure points. This technique can
be used on both the towing and towed boat.
Keep lines clear of propellers on both boats.
Keep 1ands and feet clear af the other boat.
Neve' nold a towline after .t ,s pulled taut
PERSON OVERBOARD
• Immediately sound an alarm and keep pointing
to the person overboard.
• Throw a life preserver even if the person is
wearing a PFD. It will serve as a marker.
• Immediately stop or slow the boat, then cil1:le
toward the victim.
• Keep person overboard on helm side so
operator has the person constantly in sight.
• Approach from downwind and move alongside
into the wind for pickup.
• When almost alongside, stop the engine in gear
to prevent dangerous propeller "Windmilling."
• As part of your emergency plan, consider what
to do if you were alone and fell overboard (e.g.,
wear PFD, keep signal device in PFD, attach
emergency engine stop switch lanyard to
yourself).
DROWNING
• Swim to rescue a drowning victim only as a last
resort.
• Immediate resuscitation is critical! At least two
people on board should be certified in CPR.
• Keep the victim warm.
• Use care in handling. Spinal injury may exist if
the victim fell overboard.
• Signal for help.
MEDICAL EMERGENCY
In an emergency, you may be far from professional
medical assistance. Be prepared. Take a first aid
course. and carry a first aid kit. Be aware of special
conditions that may affect anyone on board.
CARBON MONOXIDE
Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless,
extremely toxic gas. Symptoms of carbon monoxide
poisoning are dizziness, ears ringing, headaches,
nausea and unconsciousness. A poisoning victim's
skin often turns cherry red.
Have the victim breathe fresh air deeply. If breathing
stops, resuscitate. A ✓ 1ctim often revives. then
relapses because organs are damaged by lack of
oxygen Seek ,mmed,a,e medical attention
PROPULSION, CONTROL OR STEERING.
FAILURE
• Shut off engine.
• Put out an anchor to prevent drifting.
• Determine if you can fix the problem yourself.
See engine operator's manual if engine is
flooded.
• Signal for help.
RADIO COMMUNICATION
Radio is the boat operator's main method of
receiving safety information and summoning aid.
VHF-FM radio is the primary means of short-range
communication. Single sideband radio (SSB) is
used for longer range communication.
VHF-FM. Channel 16 and SSB 282 kHz are
designated for emergency use. Such situations can
be categorized as:
• Emergency -
"MAYDAY, MAYDAY, MAYDAY" - Used
when a life or vessel is in imminent danger.
• Urgency-
"PAN-PAN, PAN-PAN, PAN-PAN"
(pronounced PAHN-PAHN) - Used when a
person or vessel is in some jeopardy less than
indicated by a Mayday call.
• Safety -
"SECURITY, SECURITY, SECURITY"
(pronounced SAY-CURE-IT-TAY) - Used for
navigational safety or weather warning.
An emergency situation will be hectic and there will
not be time to learn proper radio procedure. LEARN
WHATTO DO BEFORE YOU NEED TO DO IT.
If you hear a distress call, stop all radio
transmissions. If you can directly assist, respond
on the emergency frequency. If you cannot assist,
do not transmit on that frequency. However. continue
to monitor until it 1s obvious that help is being
provided.

Reverse Gears
The reverse gear incorporates the clutch and controls
the rotation of the propeller. The position of the clutch
control or shifting lever indicates the motion which
the clutch and reven.e gear are transmitting. The
center position of the lever indicates neutral. Engine
RPM should never exceed 1000 when engaging
or disengaging the clutch. Higher RPM wfll result
in unnecessary _ , and shortened life of the
unit, and perhaps bnlakagtt.
Marine reverse gears are hydraulically operated,
thereby making it imperative to.periodically maintain
and check oil level. If the correct oil level is not
maintained, slippage occurs, causing damage to the
clutch plates. Too much oil will cause foaming and
erratic clutch operation. For additional information see
the Engine and/or Transmission Operator's Manual.
ENGINE MOUNTS
The adjustable type engine mounts permit
adjustment sideways as well as vertlcally. Vertical

VIBRATION & CAUSES
Some vibration is to be expected in your boat
because of the action of the engines and the
propeller. But excessive vibration indicates
conditions which must be promptly corrected to avoid
damage. The following are some conditions which
may cause vibrations.
Foreign Object Interfering With Propeller
Action
Weeds, ropes, fishing lines or nets can become
wrapped around the propeller and/or shaft, causing
vibration and toss of speed. Always stop and then
reverse the propeller after going through a weedy
area to unwrap and clear away any weeds which
may have accumulated. Although reversing will
sometimes help to unwrap lines and nets. they are
difficult to remove without hauling.
Always check for loose or trailing dock lines before
getting underway. When towing a dinghy or
surfboard. remember that a long tine may easily
become entangled with the propeller when backing
down
Bent Prop (And/Or Shaft')
:,, 8adly damaged Jr j1s:orted prop or snaft 1s an
'Jbv1ous cause of v1brat1O0. Even when the propeller
appears to be oerfect make sure 1t has not been
a pulled off-center by the prop key.
*Engine & Shaft Out Of Alignment
Although the shaft is properly aligned when it leaves
the factory, after transit and after the boat has been
in the water a few days, the alignment should be
rechecked. The shaft coupling is the connecting point
between the shaft and the engine and the alignment
should be set at .003" to .005'. Refer to "SHAFTS"
in this section of the Owner's Manual.
*Coupling Out Of True
Although an extremely unlikely condition, check the
couplings if other efforts to correct the vibration fail.
Check the engine half of the coupling (with dial
indicator on the face) to see that it runs true with the
shaft coupling. Also check the coupling keys. They
must fit correctly to prevent forcing the couplings off
center.
Engine Part Hitting Boat Structure
Engines are flexibly mounted to reduce transmission
of vibration to the hull structure. If some part of the
engine, such as the oil pan, reverse gear or reduction
gear housing, contacts a stringer, brace, or part of
the hull, vibration will result. The flexible shaft log
allows a limited side motion of the shaft, but an
excessive "whip" can cause the shaft to strike the
sides of the shaft hole or the shaft log with resultant
vibration.
'Other Causes
Other causes of vibration include the following:
engine out of tune, a bent rudder, a worn strut
bearing, a component of the exhaust system
vibrating against the hull or improper contact between
shaft taper and the propeller hub bore.
'Inboard Engines Only.
FRESH WATER COOLING SYSTEM
Your engine may be equipped
eAAA
with a fresh water cooling
system; refer to your engine
operator's manual. The fresh
water cooling system is a closed
system which helps protect
engines from internal corrosion and provides more
even distribution of engine temperature. Change the
coolant annually.
Coolant Recommendations
The standard mixture of water and coolant 1s a
mixture ·)f 30°0 antifreeze J.nd 70° 10 water. which
 protects to 0°F (·18°C). This will allow the coolllnt
/ to expand properly and maintain normal o ~
engine temperature. In colder climates, t h e ~
level should be increased to 50/50, which protecta
to-34°F (-37°C), for proper coverage. To find engine
coolant capacity, refer to your Engine Owner's
Manual in the Owner's Manual Packet.
PROPELLERS
Propellers should be free of
nicks, excessive pitting and any
distortions that alter the
• propellers from their original
design. Badly damaged props
should be replaced, but those
that are chipped, bent or merely
knocked out of shape can be reconditioned by your
marine dealer.
When doing extensive cruising, it is advisable to carry
extra propellers aboard.
Propeller lnetalhitlon:
For proper rotation, the installation of propeHers on
inboard engine boats requires the right hand
propeller to be installed on the starboard side and
the left hand propeller to be installed on the port side.
Install in the following manner:
1. Inspect the key. It must be chamfered so that
the comers of the key do not touch the keyway
fillets (see illustration #2).
2. Install the propeller on the shaft without the key
in the keyway. Slide the propeller all the way on
the shaft until it seats. Marl< the shaft on the
leading edge of the hub with a felt tip marl<er
and remove the propeller.
3. Install the key in the keyway and slide the
propeller on the shaft. If the key is not pinned.
tap the key back slightly as the propeller slides
up the taper. This will ensure that the propeller
does not ride the key up the keyway end radius.
thus forcing the propeller off-center. The
propeller is properly seated if the hub is in the
same position as previously marked.
4. Install a (2 x 4) board against the hub perpen-
dicularto the keel and rotate the propeller clock-
wise until one blade rotates against the board
(do not put a board between the strut and the
rudder) (see illustration #4).

SHAFT LOG & STRONG SEAL"'
(Inboard Engine Only)
The shaft log is a fiberglass tube which provides an
opening through the bottom of the boat for the
propeller shaft. The Strong Seal~ is connected to it
by a short length of special flexible hose which serves
to absorb normal shaft vibration. The Strong Seal™
prevents water from leaking around the shaft and
into the boat. Shaft alignment and straightness must
be correct to assure proper operation of the Strong
Sear·.
REFER TO OWNER'S MANUAL PACKET FOR
INSTRUCTIONS AND WARRANTY INFORMATION.
SHAFTS
(Inboard Engines Only)
The shaft coupling is the connecting point between
the shaft and the engine. The alignment should be
set at .003" to .005" (0.08-0.13mm). Misalignment
is much exaggerated in Figure A, but a slight
misalignment will cause loss of power, excessive
wear, noise and vibration. It should not be tolerated.
When checking for parallel coupling faces (the proof
t
of proper alignment), use a feeler gauge not more
than .003 to .005 of an inch thick (0.08-0.13mm).
With coupling faces brought together by hand - not
bolted - the feeler gauge should be tightly gripped at
all points around the edges of the couplings. Next,
hold the engine coupling flange stationary and rotate
the shaft coupling flange 90 degrees in erther direction.
The feeler gauge should still be tightly gripped at all
points around the edges of the couplings.

STEERING SYSTEM
Steering system integrity and control is imperative
when engaging in recreational water activities.
Constant attention must be paid to the continued
proper performance of the steering system. Strict
adherence to the following guidelines must be
followed to ensure safe recreational boating.
Boat steering is not self-cantering. Steering Is
affected by engine and propeller torque, bim plane
setting, -ve and current action, and the speed
of the hull through the water. Constant attention
and control of thedinictlon of the boat are required
for safe operation.
INBOARD HYDRAULIC STEERING
SYSTEM
The hydraulic steering system is used primarily on
( boats with inboard engines, equipped with dual

control stations; however, it is often used on boats
with a single fly bridge control station.
Periodically remove the plug in the helm unit and
check the oil level visually. The oil level should be
within 1/2' (1-1/4 cm)of the filler hole.
The system must be filled with hydraulic oil meeting
Mil Spec H-5606 A. Refer to steering system owner's
information in the owner's packet for specific
hydraulic oils that can be used.
Periodically check the mechanical connections and
linkages at the cylinder. Replace worn parts, tighten
loose parts and lubrieate as needed. The steering
system is protected against over-pressure situations
by a pressure relief valve. Sometimes when returning
the w~eel from a hard-over position, a slight
resistance may be felt and a clicking nols& may be
heard. This is a completely normal situation caused
by the releasing of the lockspool in the system.

different functions, operating and maintenance
instructions which must be followed to prevent
improper operation and maintenance. Read and
understand the information in the Owner's Manual
Packet for your sport yacht model's gear and throttle

Your sport yacht has start in-gear protection. For
safety's sake and as a good habit to get into, always
put the gear selector in the NEUTRAL position and
the throttle selector in the IDLE· position before
starting the engines.
• ShHt selector(s) to NEUTRAL before stsrtlng

Shift only when engine is at idle.
Reversing at high speeds can cause flooding/
swamping due to water being pushed over the

• Shift quickly; easing into gear can damage the
transmission.
• Hydraulic and stern drive controls FORWARD

STERN DRIVE GEAR SHIFT & THROTTLE
CONTROLS
There are two gear shift levers and two throttle control
levers.
The gear shift levers (short set of levers) have three
positions: forward, neutral (center), and reverse. The
gear shift levers must be in the neutral posttion when
starting the engines. A positioning pin can be felt
when the control is in exact neutral. Forward and
reverse positions should always be in the full travel
extremes in either direction for positive engagement
and minimum wear. Each gear shift lever can be used
independently from the other, for example, when
idling one shift can be put in forward and the other in
reverse for tight maneuvenng. Shift gears only with
engines idling.
Stern Drive Shift & Throttle Controls
(fig. 3.4.2) 3.,.8D THROTTLE
The throttle controls (tall set of levers) regulate the
RPM of the engines. Pushing the levers forward will
increase engine RPM. Regulating RPM of the
engines will control the speed of the boat through
the water. ('
Reversing
Reversing the shift mechanism will act as a "braking
action" when maneuvering the boat at low speeds.
Care should be taken in using reverse throttle for
"braking action," as sudden slowing of the boat from
forward motion will create a following wake which
may rise above the transom and flood the boat if the
boat is moving at too great a speed. All propellers
are designed to provide maximum forward thrust.
so the reverse thrust of the propeller will not be as
efficient.

Fueling Precautions
Certain precautions must be carefully and completely
observed every time a boat is fueled, even with diesel
fuel. Diesel fuel 1s nonexplosive but it will burn.
Before Fueling
Make sure your boat is tied securely to the fueling

Water Syste1ns
The fresh water system aboard your boat is
pressurized. When a faucet is opened, pressure in
the system is reduced as the water level drops. A
pump is activated by a pressure sensing switch in
the pump. The pump will continue to run after all
faucets are closed and the pressure set point of the
sensor is reached.
Hot water Is provided by either a heat exchanger
connected with the engine or an electric hot water
heater.
The fresh water system is activated by the "FRESH
WATER PUMP" circuit breaker on the main
distribution panel. The breaker must be ON to
operate the head, shower, ice maker, fresh water
wash down or faucets.
FILLING THE WATER TANK AA.A
I.
Fresh water fill plate is clearly marked for
water only. Do not attempt to put anything
other than fresh water in tank.
To fill your water tank you should use a plastic hose.
Do not use a rubber hose; it can give the water a
disagreeable flavor. The hose should be kept for
filling use only. After using the hose it should be
emptied. Start at one end and raise the hose to
shoulder level and walk to the opposite end of the
hose. allowing the ,emaining water •o flow out. You
should store your water tank filling hose In a dry,
clean place. It Is also a good practice to cover the
ends of the hose '.o ,eep the inside -:lean.

SANITIZING WATER SYSTEM
Although your dealer initially sanitizes the water
system, if the system has not been used for a long
period of time or you suspect it may be
contaminated. use a water treatment additive to
sanitize the potable water system. Water treatment
additives are available at marine/RV supply stores.
If water treatment additives are not available, adhere
to the following procedure for complete sanitation
of your potable water system.
1. Prepare a 64: 1 water-chlorine solution (one
gallon [4 liters] of water and 1/4 cup [60 ml]
Clorox or Purex household bleach [5%
Hypochlorite solution)). With tank empty, pour
chlorine solution into tank, using one gallon
solution for each 15 gallons of tank capacity (one
liter for each 15 liters of tank capacity).
2. Complete filling of tank with fresh water. Open
each faucet and drain cock until air has been
released and the entire system Is filled.
3. Allow to stand for three hours.
4. Drain and flush with potable fresh water.
5. To remove excessive chlorine taste or odor
which might remain, prepare a 20:1 water-
vinegar solution (five gallons [20 liters I water to
one quart [one literj vinegar) and allow this
solution to agitate in the tank for several days
by vehicle motion.
6. Drain tank and again flush with potable water.
WATER PUMP & FILTER
The pump has a filter to prevent particles from
entering the pump head. The filter should be checked
and cleaned periodically.
Some water tanks, where the pump is installed lower
than the tank, are fitted with a shut-off valve located
in-line between the tank and the pump_ The valve is
provided so that you can disconnect the water pump
connections without having to drain the water tank.

The hot water exchanger Is designed to heat•11v•\
without having to turn the hot water heater on. It
works by pumping water from the engine cooling f

water heater where it heats the potable water. The
water from the engine then exits the water heater
and returns to the engine through the engine waler

Your Sea Raye Sport Yacht may have a 12 volt
accessory receptacle at the control station. It is a
cigarette lighter style receptacle to be used with any
1 2 volt accessories using this type of plug.
120 VOLT AC/12 VOLT AC
TRANSFORMERS
Your Sport Yacht may be equipped with one or more
1 20 volt AC transformers. This will allow you to
operate the 12 volt AC lighting while your Sport Yacht
is using the 120 volt AC shore power or generator.
This helps relieve some of the lighting load from the
DC system. Read and understand the information
for the transformer in your Owner's Manual Packet.

ELECTRONICS CIRCUIT WITH GROUND
PLATE
The 50 amp electronics circuit utilizes a circuit
breaker in the main DC breaker panel to feed the
fuse block at the control station. The fuse block is
to be used for electronic equipment only. There is a
static ground buss located at the control station for
mounting of electronic equipment static grounds
only, not for current carrying grounds. It is grounded
via a ground plate mounted on the bottom of the
hull. Do not use bottom paint on the ground plate
as it will destroy the effective area of grounding.

HALOGEN LIGHTING

The filament bulbs uaed in ail halogen-cycle

tamps generate Intense heat. To avoid the
possibility of fire, do not use lamp at close range
to materials that are combustible or affacted by
heat or drying. Halogen-cycle bulbs are
pressurized and could shatter if scratchad or
damaged. Glass halogen-cycle bulbs should be
protected against contact with liquids when
operating.

The bulb MUST be protected from contaminates.

Use appropriate protection. such as clean cloth
gloves, when handling or disposing of all halogen-
cycle bulbs. Wear eye protection. Turn power off
when installing or before removing lamp. Allow lamp
to cool before removal.

 DRAINING THE BOAT
In climates where freezing occurs, it is important
that the bilge be completely drained and dried out
when the boat is laid up for the winter. Your Sport
Yacht is equipped wtth a drain plug for this purpose.
Some compartments in the bilge may not drain
completely because of the position of the boat. They
should be pumped out and sponged unti.1 totally. free
of water.
The boat's entire fresh water system must be
drained. Open all faucets throughout the boat. Open
a connection at the lowest point in the fresh water
lines to completely drain them. Break the
connections on each side of the water pump. Drain
the heads. Drain the water heater: Break the lower
connection if necessary.
The engine cooling system and the exhaust system
must be free of water if there is danger of freezing.
Drain plugs are provided on the engine for this
purpose. It is necessary to open a connection or
two in the exhaust system to drain the lowest
portions; these should be reassembled securely
immediately after draining is accomplished.

Fiberglass & Gelcoat
The fiberglass hull. deck and some interior parts
consist of the molded shell and exterior gelcoat. Th&
gelcoat is the outer surface, often colored, that
presents the shiny smooth appearance which is
associated with fiberglass products. In some areas,
this gelcoat surface is painted or taped for styling
purpose.
Wash the fiberglass cegularly with clean, fresh water.
Wax gelcoated surfaces to maintain the luster. In
northern climates, a semiannual waxing may suffice
for the season. In southern climates, a quarterly
application of wax will be required for adequate
protection.
Gelcoat surfaces ue slippery when wet. Use ex-
treme care when walking on wet gelcoat.
Care should be utilized in waxing commonly
walked upon areas of the boat to ensure that they
are not dangerously slippery.
If the gelcoated surface gloss cannot be restored
by waxing, power buff with a rubbing compound such
as 3M Super Duty #05955, followed with 3M

.CAUTION,•·
If your boat is equipped with a forward deck sun
pad. it should not be left on the deck when not in
use. The gelcoat finish may be affected over a
prolonged period of !ime.
STAINS & SCRATCHES
Gelcoat and painted surfaces are very resistant to
deep stains. Common surface stains can be
removed with diluted household detergents,
provided these detergents do not contain ammonia
or chlorine. Porcelain-cleaning powders are too
abrasive and often contain chlorine and ammonia,
either of which would permanently discolor the
gelcoat and paint. Alcohol or kerosene can be used
for difficult stains but should be washed away
promptly with a mild detergent and water. Never use
acetone or any ketone solvents.
Minor scratches and deeper stains which do not
penetrate the gelcoat may be removed by light
sanding and buffing.
SPECIAL CARE FOR BOATS THAT
ARE MOORED
If permanently moored in salt water or fresh water,
your boat will collect marine growth on rts bottom.
This will detract from the boat's beauty and greatly
affect its performance. There are two methods of
preventing this:
• Periodically haul the boat out of the water and
scrub the bottom with a bristle brush and a
solution of soap and water.
• Paint the hull below the waterline with a good
grade of antifouling paint. DO NOT paint the
engine drive surfaces.
NOTE: There are EPA regulations regarding
bottom paint application. Consult your Sea Ray®
dealer for proper application methods.
Care For Bottom Paint
From time to time a slight algae or slime forms on
all vessels. The bottom painted portion of the hull
can be wiped off with a coarse turkish towel or a
piece of old rug while the boat 1s in the water. Do
not use a stiff or abrasive material to clean the
bo~om paint.

on the bottom paint label. Replacement coating can -
be ordered from your Sea Ra~ dealer.
Fiberglass hulls should never be hauled, painted and
relaunched the same day since this does not allow
sufficient time for the moisture which has been
absorbed into the old paint film to completely dry
out. Generally, 24 to 36 hours of drying time is
required.
Bilge/Engine Con, partrnen t
1. Pump the bilges dry and remove all loose dirt.
Be sure that all limber holes are open. If there
is oil in the bilge and the source is not known,
look for leaks in engine oil lines or engine
gaskets. Oil stains can be removed by using a
bilge cleaner available from your dealer or a
marina. DO NOT use flammable solvents.
2. Check all wiring to be sure it is properly
supported, that ,ts insulation is intact, and that
there are no loose or corroded terminals. If there
are corroded terminals, they should be replaced
or thoroughly cleaned. Tighten all terminals
securely and spray them with light marine
preservative oil.
3. Inspect the entire fuel system (including fill lines
and vents) for any evidence of leakage. Any
s!ains around joints could indicate a leak. Try a
wrench on all fittings to be sure they are not
loose, but do not over tighten them. Clean fuel
filters and vent screens.
4. Inspect the entire bottom for evidence of
seepage, damage or deterioration, paying
particular attention to hull fittings, hoses and
clamps. Straighten kinked hoses and replace
any that do not feel pliable. Tighten loose hose
clamps and replace those that are corroded.
Tighten any loose nuts, bolts or screws.
5. Refer to your engine operator's manual for
engine maintenance details. Wipe off engine to
remove accumulated dust and grease. If a
solvent is used. make sure it is nonflammable.
Go over the entire engine and tighten nuts. bolts,
and screws. Inspect the wiring on the engine
and clean and tighten the terminals. Inspect the

1. Check grab rails for loose screws, breaks, sharp·
edges, etc .. that might be hazardous in rough
weather. Inventory and inspect life Jackets for
tears and deterioration. Check your first aid kit
to make sure it is complete. Check the signaling
equipment. Inspect anchor, mooring and towing
lines and repair or replace as required. DO NOT
stow wet lines or they may mildew and rot.
2. Stainless steel and alloy fittings should be
cleaned with soap and water or household glass
cleaner. Remove rust spots as soon as possible
with a brass. silver or chrome cleaner.
Irreversible pitting will develop under rust that
remains for any period of time. Never use an
abrasive like sandpaper or steel wool on
stainless.These may actually cause rust. To help
protect the stainless, we recommend the use of
a good car wax.
3. When instruments are exposed to a saltwater
environment, salt crystals may form on the bezel
and the plastic covers. These salt crystals should
be removed with a soft, damp cloth; never use
abrasives or rough, dirty cloths to wipe plastic
parts. Mild household detergents or plastic
cleaners can be used to keep the instruments
bright and clean.
Acrylic Plastic Sheeting
(Plastic Glass)
Never use a dry cloth or duster or glass cleaning
solutions on acrylic.
To clean acrylic, first flood ,t with water to wash off
as much dirt as possible. Next, use your bare hand,
with plenty of water. to feel and dislodge any caked
dirt or mud. A soft. grit-free cloth may then be used

STORAGE Repair and Parts Facilities

WET STORAGE PROCEDURES: Special care for
boats that are moored: If permanently moored in salt
water or fresh water, your boat will collect marine
growth on its bottom. This will detract from the boat's
beauty and greatly affect its performance. There are
two methods of preventing this:
• Periodically haul the boat out of the water and scrub
the bottom with a bristle brush and a solution of soap
and water.
To find a Sea Ray® dealer in your area, call: Sea Ray®
Customer Service: 1-800-SRBOATS
FAX: 1-800-755-2890 Domestic
FAX: 1-404-817-2242 International
To find repair and parts facilities for equipment installed
on your boat, refer to the original equipment manuals
(OEMs) found in the owner's manual packet.

• Paint the hull below the waterline with a good grade

of antifouling paint. DO NOT paint the engine drive
surfaces.

NOTE: There are EPA regulations regarding bottom

paint application. Consult your marine paint dealer for
proper application methods.

SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS: Be conscious of the

security of your boat. Always remove the keys from the
1gnit1on, lock hatches, lock the cabin door. Remove and
stow any removable electronic gear (fishfinders,
LORAN, etc.) and personal gear (fishing poles, etc.)
normally left aboard your boat.
