Owner`s manual

3000 EXPRESS
A large tackle locker is built into the helm seat base. The tackle locker is lockable and has four
storage drawers.
Ice Maker
A 110-volt ice maker is supplied as optional equipment and is mounted in the prep/entertainment
center. The ice maker operates on 110-volt AC power only. The ice maker door has a special latch
to secure the door while under way, make sure the door is properly secured whenever the boat is
moving. Refer to the ice maker owner’s manual for additional operating and maintenance
instructions.
Transom Door and Gate
A transom door and gate is incorporated into the transom. The gate is secured by a latch on the
underside, and the door is secured by a special latch mounted on the inboard side of the door. The
transom door and gate should only be opened when the boat is not in motion. The door must be
latched in either the full “OPEN” or full “CLOSED” position. Never leave the transom door
unlatched.
Note: Periodically inspect the transom door and gate fittings for wear, damage, or loose
fit. Any problems should be inspected and corrected immediately.
THE TRANSOM DOOR AND GATE SHOULD BE CLOSED AND PROPERLY LATCHED
WHENEVER THE ENGINE(S) ARE RUNNING. NEVER OPEN THE TRANSOM DOOR WHILE
UNDERWAY OR IN ROUGH SEA CONDITIONS. IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS, AN OPEN TRAN-
SOM DOOR COULD ALLOW A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF WATER TO ENTER THE COCK-
PIT CREATING A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS CONDITION.
OPERATING THE BOAT UNDER POWER WITH THE TRANSOM DOOR AND GATE OPEN
MAY ALLOW PERSONS TO FALL OVERBOARD AND INTO BOAT PROPELLERS OR TO
BE LOST IN OPEN WATER. ALWAYS CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE TRANSOM DOOR
AND GATE IS PROPERLY CLOSED AND LATCHED BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINES AND
NEVER OPERATE THE BOAT UNDER POWER WITH THE TRANSOM DOOR AND GATE
OPEN.
Below Deck Stern Fishbox
A fishbox is located in the stern below the cockpit sole. The fishbox is drained by a macerator pump
located in the bilge and activated by a momentary switch in the rear of the cockpit near the transom
door. A momentary switch is used because the pump will be damaged if it is allowed to run dry
for more than 30 seconds. The fishbox should be pumped out and cleaned after each use. Refer
to the Drainage Systems chapter for more information on the fishbox drainage.
Cockpit Shower
A freshwater shower is located behind a small door in the cockpit. It is supplied hot and cold water
by the freshwater system and works much like the shower in the head.
