Swim Platform
Your Pursuit is equipped with an integral swim platform and engine mounting system located in the stern of
the boat. There are two inspection deck plates in the splashwell to provide access to the stern bilge and engine
mounting bolts. An access panel on the port side of the platform provides access to the port rear bilge and
the port trim tab line. Always make sure these plates are secure before operating your boat. There are also
deck plates and a hatch that provide access to the scupper valves and the fuel filters. Always make sure these
plates and hatches are secure before operating your boat.
Boarding Ladder
The boarding ladder is mounted to the rear of the stern bait and tackle rigging station when it is in the stored
position. To use the ladder, remove it from the storage clips and slide the studs into the special bracket on
the port side of the transom. The ladder floats and must be secured in the boarding position by turning the
cam lock on the ladder so it catches the bottom of the transom ladder bracket. The ladder must be removed
from the transom bracket and properly secured to the storage clips before starting the engine(s).
MOVING PROPELLERS ARE DANGEROUS. THEY CAN CAUSE DEATH, LOSS OF LIMBS,
OR OTHER SEVERE INJURY. DO NOT USE THE SWIM PLATFORM OR SWIM LADDER
WHILE THE ENGINE(S) ARE RUNNING. STOP THE ENGINE(S) IF DIVERS OR SWIM-
MERS ARE ATTEMPTING TO BOARD. ALWAYS REMOVE AND PROPERLY STORE THE
LADDER BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE(S).
Trim Tabs
The trim tabs are recessed into the hull below the swim platform. The trim tabs are an important part of the
control systems. Please refer to the Helm Control Systems chapter for detailed information on the trim tabs.

WITH SPECIAL FASTENERS, HATCH LIFTERS, OR SNAPS AND/OR STRAPS, TO SECURE

DOORS ARE PROPERLY SECURED WHENEVER THEY ARE IN THE OPEN POSITION.

The leaning post/baitwell is equipped with rod holders, a leaning post cushion and tackle storage. The tackle
drawers are removable and the door can be locked to secure the tackle when the boat is unattended.
