Downriggers (Dealer Installed)
Downriggers must be installed on the deck
area aft of the gunwale boards. Your boat is
reinforced in this area for the installation of
downriggers. DO NOT install or insert down-
riggers in the rod holders mounted in the
gunwale boards; damage can occur.
7.2 Cockpit
Swim Platform
Your Pursuit boat is equipped with port and
starboard aft integrated boarding platforms.
A foldaway boarding ladder is located in the
aft starboard corner of the boarding platform.
DO NOT use the boarding platforms or lad-
der while an engine is running. The engines
must be “OFF” before allowing anyone to
enter or exit the boat or when they are in the
water.
Stow ladder before starting an engine.
Cockpit Shower
A fresh water shower is located in the aft
port side of the cockpit. It is supplied with hot
and cold water by the fresh water system
and works much like the shower in the head.
Transom Door
Do not use the transom door when the boat
is in motion. DO NOT leave the transom
door unlatched. Latch it in the full “OPEN” or
full “CLOSED” position.
Ski Pylon (Optional)
The optional ski tow pylon is designed for a
single water skier only. The ski tow is not to
be used for anything other than water sports.
Below Deck Fishbox
The fishboxes located in the cockpit are
drained by a diaphram pump located in the
bilge. Pump out and clean the fishboxes
after each use. Refer to Drainage Systems
for more information on the fishbox drain-
age.
Helm Seat
The helm seat can be adjusted fore and aft.
An adjuster handle is located at the front of
the seat. The seat also has a height adjust-
ment. Using the switch on the helm adjust
height to optimal level for visibility.
! DANGER
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING
AND/OR ROTATING PARTS HAZARD
Poisonous CO gases are present at
the rear of the boat when an engine is
running. A rotating propeller can cut
or entangle swimmers. Both of these
hazards will cause death or serious
injury. DO NOT use the swim/boarding
platform when the engine is running.
! WARNING
UNSAFE BOAT HAZARD
Failure to close and secure transom
door/gate while underway can expose
passengers to rotating propellers,
throw them overboard or swamp the
boat which can cause death or seri-
ous injury. Close and secure door/
gate before getting underway.
NOTICE
Inspect transom door fittings periodi-
cally for wear, damage or loose fit.
Repair or replace before using your
boat.
! CAUTION
Do not overload the ski pylon. The
maximum load is 1000 lbs. (454 kg).
