6.4 Raw Water System Maintenance

The following items should be done routinely to help maintain your raw water system:

• Check hoses, particularly the seawater supply lines, for signs of deterioration.

• Remove and clean the seawater strainers for the livewell, bait locker and washdown pump,

as needed.

• Spray pumps and thru hull valves with a protective oil periodically.

• The fishboxes and livewells should be drained and cleaned after each use.

• Operate all thru hull valves at least once a month to keep them operating properly.

SHOULD A HOSE RUPTURE, TURN THE PUMP OFF IMMEDIATELY. ALWAYS

CLOSE THE THRU HULL VALVE WHEN PERFORMING MAINTENANCE ON A SEA-

WATER PUMP.

THE BATTERIES MUST BE PROPERLY CHARGED. OPERATING ANY PUMPS

FROM A BATTERY WITH A LOW CHARGE MAY LEAD TO A PUMP FAILURE.

THE RAW WATER SYSTEM MUST BE PROPERLY WINTERIZED PRIOR TO WIN-

TER LAY-UP. SEE THE SECTION ON WINTERIZING.
