TRANSOM DOOR
A transom door is incorporated into the rigging station and livewell. The transom door should only be operated
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.
THE TRANSOM DOOR 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 TRANSOM DOOR
COULD ALLOW A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF WATER TO ENTER THE COCKPIT CRE-
ATING A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS CONDITION. OPERATING THE BOAT UNDER
POWER WITH THE TRANSOM DOOR/GATE OPEN MAY ALLOW PERSONS TO FALL
OVERBOARD AND INTO BOAT PROPELLERS OR TO BE LOST IN OPEN WATER.
PERIODICALLY INSPECT THE TRANSOM DOOR FITTINGS FOR WEAR, DAMAGE OR
LOOSE FIT. ANY PROBLEMS SHOULD BE INSPECTED AND CORRECTED IMMEDIATELY.
BOW STORAGE COMPARTMENTS
There are three storage compartments located in the bow. Storage is provided in the port and starboard
compartments. The center compartment provides access to the holding tanks and has additional room for
dunnage.
ROD LOCKERS
There are two lockable rod lockers located in the bow, above the port and starboard storage compartments.
The lockers are designed to store three rods each and are equipped with straps to secure the rods during boat
operation. Always make sure the rods are properly secured in the storage racks before operating the boat.
T-TOP (Optional)
The T-top is made of welded anodized aluminum and is designed to accommodate radio antennas, radar
antennas and navigation lights. It is equipped with an overhead storage compartment for life jackets and other
soft, light items and an overhead light activated by a switch in the helm. It could also be equipped with optional
outriggers and/or rod holders.
The T-top is not designed to support the additional weight of items like an instrument locker or a life raft.
Radar and electronics antennas must be mounted near the center section of the T-top in the area above the legs.
Do not mount any antennas or equipment to the brow area forward of the front legs or to the rear of the top.
The T-top is not design to support the weight of accessories in these areas.
The warranty for the T-top will be void if the top is modified in any way or heavy accessories like life rafts
or electronics lockers are mounted to the top. Additionally, if items like radar antennas, spotlights and other
accessories are mounted in the wrong location, the warranty could be void. If you intend to add equipment
or make modifications to the T-top, you should contact Pursuit Customer Relations to make sure the equipment
you would like to add or the intended modification will not void the warranty on the T-top.
If an after market T-top is installed, it must be designed with front legs that are bolted to the console on either
side of console seat and the rear legs bolted to the cockpit sole at the rear of the console. There are aluminum
plates or wood reinforcement in the laminate in these areas for securing the T-top leg bases. Both front and
rear legs should also have brackets that are thru-bolted to the console just below the windshield to provide
additional stiffening for the T-top. If you intend to install an after market T-top on your boat, please contact
your dealer or Pursuit Customer Relations.
