22 KODIAK
Deck Hatch
The deck hatch is supported in the open position by
adjustable hatch adjusters. To close the hatch, release the
cams on the hatch adjusters and lower the hatch. Secure in
the closed position with the two cam levers on the inside of
the hatch.
Windshield
The windshield is equipped with an opening vent
panel on each side of the windshield. To open the
vent, release the locking T-handle and open the
vent to the desired position. Lock the vent in place
by turning the T-handle 1/4 turn. The friction of
the T-handle in the guide will hold the vent in that
position.
The front and side wing panels are tempered
safety glass. The curved glass panels on the port
and starboard side of the windshield are made of tinted acrylic plastic glass. Acrylic glass scratches
easily. Never use a dry cloth or glass cleaning solutions on acrylic. Use a soft cloth and mild soap
and water for routine cleaning. Solvents and products containing ammonia can permanently
damage acrylic. Please refer to the Routine Maintenance chapter for more information on the
proper care and maintenance of acrylic plastic glass.
Bimini Top and Side Curtains
The canvas for Pursuit boats is custom fit to each boat. The bimini top is designed with a relatively
flat profile and a snug fit. The canvas is fit to the boat at the factory and the bimini top must be
installed properly in order for the clear connector and side curtains to fit.
To install the Bimini top, attach the main legs to the deck hinges using the quick release pins and
leave the rear stanchions loose. Next, open the bimini and attach the front straps to the metal eye
straps on the top of the windshield frame. Attach the rear stanchions, one at a time, to the rear deck
hinges located near the rear of the windshield. Use your body weight on the rear corner of the bimini
to pull down and stretch the fabric until the stanchion eye end lines up with the hole in the deck
hinge. Secure each eye end to the deck hinge with the quick release pins. If the top is still adjusted
to factory specifications, the top will be level and the main legs will have a visible bow in them.
Note: The front straps of the bimini must be secured to the windshield before the rear
stanchions are secured to the deck. If the rear stanchions are secured first, it will be
very difficult to secure the front straps without loosening them. If the front straps are
loosened, the bimini top will be too loose and the clear connector and side curtains will
not fit properly and appear to be too short.
