BOAT SYSTEMS

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Skeeter boats have sophisticated electrical systems to
provide service and function to their owner. Power is
supplied from batteries located in the aft rigging
compartment directly in front of the engine. Red
positive (+) leads and black negative (-) leads with ring
terminals for connecting to batteries are located in this
compartment. There will be three or four heavy gauge
wires for the trolling motor system to connect to the
trolling motor batteries. There will be two lighter gauge
wires for the boat supply or “accessory” harness to
connect to the engine cranking battery. Some system
models are built to locate trolling motor batteries and
wiring under the front deck.
FUEL SYSTEM
Your Skeeter boat is equipped with an internal fuel
system meeting current federal requirements.
The fuel system must be thoroughly inspected and
repaired, if necessary, before operating the boat. Do
not operate your boat knowing you have a fuel system
problem.
If you suspect your boat has a fuel system problem,
contact your Skeeter Dealer.
Leaking fuel is a fire and explosion hazard.
Inspect system regularly. Examine fuel system
for leaks or corrosion at least annually.
Failure to inspect the fuel system could allow
fuel leakage to go undetected, becoming a fire
or explosion hazard.
