Chapter 1: Welcome Aboard!
Special Care For Moored Boats
NOTI CE
•
To help seal the hull bottom and reduce the possibility of gelcoat blistering on moored boats, apply an epoxy barrier coating. The barrier coating should be covered with several coats of anti-fouling paint.
•
Many states regulate the chemical content of bottom paints in order to meet environmental standards. Check with your local dealer about recommended bottom paints, and about the laws in effect in your area.
•
Whether moored in saltwater or freshwater, your boat will collect marine growth on its hull bottom.
•
This will detract from the boat’s beauty, greatly affect its performance and may damage the gelcoat.
•
There are two methods of slowing marine growth:
1. Periodically haul the boat out of the water and scrub the hull bottom with a bristle brush and a solution of soap and water.
2. Occasionally re-paint the hull below the waterline with a good grade of anti-fouling paint.
Sacrificial Anodes (Zincs)
Your boat is equipped with sacrificial anodes (zincs) to protect underwater metal parts from excessive deterioration.
Check the zincs regularly and replace them if they have deteriorated more than 70%.
There are many factors that affect the rate at which the zincs deteriorate, including:
•
Water temperature
•
Salinity
•
Water pollution
Stray current from the boat or dock may cause complete deterioration in just a few weeks. If there is rapid zinc deterioration, measure the electrolytic corrosion around your boat with a Corrosion Test Meter. If the zincs are not bonded correctly, they will not provide protection.
N OT I C E
Do not paint between the zinc and the metal surface it contacts and do not paint over the zincs.

Chapter 1: Welcome Aboard!
Carbon Monoxide (CO)
!
DANGER !
•
Carbon monoxide gas (CO) is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and extremely dangerous.
•
All engines, generators, and fuel burning appliances produce CO as exhaust.
•
Prolonged exposure to low concentrations or very quick exposure to high concentrations will cause BRAIN DAMAGE or DEATH.
•
Teak surfing, dragging, or water skiing within 20 feet of a moving watercraft can be fatal.
Facts about CO
•
CO poisoning causes a significant number of boating deaths each year.
•
Called the "silent killer", CO is an extremely toxic, colorless, odorless and tasteless gas.
•
CO can harm or even kill you inside or outside your boat.
•
CO can affect you whether you’re underway, moored, or anchored.
•
CO symptoms are similar to seasickness or alcohol intoxication.
•
CO can make you sick in seconds. In high enough concentrations, even a few breaths can be fatal.
•
Breathing CO blocks the ability of your blood to carry oxygen.
•
The effects are cumulative, even low levels of exposure can result in injury or death.
Factors That Increase the Effects of CO Poisoning
•
Age
•
Smokers or people exposed to high concentrations of cigarette smoke
•
Consumption of alcohol
•
Lung disorders
•
Heart problems
•
Pregnancy

Chapter 1: Welcome Aboard!
Where and How CO Can Accumulate
Stationary Conditions That Increase CO Accumulations Include:
A. Using engine, generator, or other fuel burning device when boat is moored in a confined space.
B. Mooring too close to another boat that is using its engine, generator, or other fuel burning device.
To correct stationary situations A and/or B:
•
Close all windows, portlights and hatches.
•
If possible, move your boat away from source of CO.
Running Conditions That Increase CO Accumulations Include:
C. Running boat with trim angle of bow too high.
D. Running boat without through ventilation (station wagon effect).
To correct running situations C and/or D:
•
Trim bow down.
•
Open windows and canvas.
•
When possible, run boat so that prevailing winds help dissipate exhaust.
How to Protect Yourself and Others From CO
•
Know where and how CO may accumulate in and around your boat (see above).
•
Maintain fresh air circulation throughout the boat at all times.
•
Know where your engine and generator exhaust outlets are located and keep everyone away from these areas.
•
Never sit on, or hang onto, the back deck or swim platform while the engine(s) are running.
•
Never enter the areas under swim platforms where exhaust outlets are located. Although CO can be present without the smell of exhaust fumes, if exhaust fumes are detected on the boat, take immediate action to dissipate these fumes.
•
Treat symptoms of seasickness as possible CO poisoning. Get the person into fresh air immediately. Seek medical attention—unless you’re sure it’s not CO.
•
Install and maintain CO alarms inside your boat. Do not ignore any alarm. Replace alarms as recommended by the alarm manufacturer.
•
Follow the checklists provided on the next page.
•
Get a Vessel Safety Check.

Navigation & Communication Equipment
The owner’s packet contains manuals for all navigation & communication equipment installed on your boat. Thoroughly read and understand these manuals before using these systems for the first time and observe the following:
VHF Radio
Your boat may include a VHF (Very High Frequency) radio. The VHF radio can be used to access weather reports, summon assistance or contact other vessels as permitted by the FCC (Federal Communications Commission). Contact the FCC for licensing, rules and regulations concerning VHF radio usage.
Depth Finder
Your boat may be equipped with a depth finder (depth sounder) at the helm station. The depth finder provides you with measurements of water depth beneath the boat.
!
WA R N I N G !
•
Do not use the depth finder as a navigational aid to prevent collision, grounding, boat damage or personal injury.
•
When the boat is moving, submerged objects will not be seen until they are already under the boat. Bottom depths may change too quickly to allow time for the boat to react. If you suspect shallow water or submerged objects, run the boat at very slow speeds.
Compass
Your boat is equipped with a compass at the helm station. Carefully read and follow the manufacturer’s calibration and usage instructions provided in the boat’s owner’s packet.
N OT I C E
Compass accuracy can be affected by many factors. Have a qualified technician calibrate your compass. Make sure the technician gives you a deviation card which shows the corrections to apply in navigational calculations. Keep a copy of the deviation card at each helm.
Global Positioning System (GPS) (If Equipped)
Your yacht may feature a GPS system at the lower helm. GPS receivers provide reliable and accurate position data, anywhere in the world.
!
WA R N I N G !
The GPS system should not be relied upon as the only aid to navigation. A qualified operator
must monitor the GPS system at all times and keep look-out for other marine traffic and possible collision situations.
N OT I C E
Τ he GPS system is only an aid to navigation. It's accuracy can be affected by many factors, including equipment failure or defects, environmental conditions & improper handling or use.
15
Chapter 2: Components/Systems
Lighting
Navigation and Interior Lights
!
C AU T I O N !
•
Avoid the storage of gear where it would block navigation lights from view.
•
Be conservative in the use of battery power. Prolonged usage of cabin interior lights (overnight) will result in a drained battery.
Read and understand the navigation light section of the Cruiser & Yacht Owner’s Manual. The navigation and interior lights installed on your boat are of top quality, but they may fail occasionally for various reasons:
1. There may be a blown fuse - replace the fuse.
2. The bulb may be burned out - carry spare bulbs for replacement.
3. A wire may be damaged or may have come loose - repair as required.
4. The bulb base may be corroded - clean the base and coat it with non-conductive electrical lubricant.

Marine Head with Holding Tank
Your boat comes equipped with a marine head (toilet) and waste holding tank system. Read the manufacturer’s instructions and maintenance manual (included in your boat’s owner’s packet).
•
The marine head installed on your boat uses seawater to flush waste from the toilet. The seawater intake valve
(seacock) is located below the middle entry step.
•
Waste is routed directly from the head to the holding tank.
•
The holding tank is plumbed to a fitting on the deck for dockside pump-out.
•
You can determine the content level of the holding tank by looking at the tank located in the engine compartment.
Empty the holding tank at every opportunity.
•
If you are unable to pump water into the bowl, the probable cause is debris in the pump diaphragm. To remedy this, shut Off the seawater intake valve (seacock) and dismantle the pump. The pump is generally held together with six screws (the design is simple and the problem will be obvious when the pump body is split open).
Using the manual flush marine head:
1. Open the head’s seawater intake valve (seacock).
2. Before using the head, pump enough water into the bowl to wet the sides.
After use, pump until the bowl is thoroughly cleaned. Continue pumping a few more times to clean the lines. If excess waste causes the water to rise in the bowl, stop pumping until the water recedes.
