Battery Switch Panel Feeds
The house and electronics breakers discon-
nect ALL battery power to the electronics
and house battery switch. These breakers
are located under the L-lounge and are
accessed through a hatch on the forward
side. If the boat is stored out of the water,
turn off the house and electronics breakers
to ensure there is no electrical drain from the
associated batteries. Turning off the house
main will disable the automatic bilge pumps
and high water alarm and cause the stereo
memory to be lost. These breakers should
NEVER be turned off if the boat is kept in the
water or the automatic bilge pumps will not
run.
Battery Switches
There are two battery switches to manage
the 12-volt power distribution. One battery
switch controls the house battery and the
electronics battery. The other battery switch
controls the two engine batteries. The elec-
tronics and house batteries or the port and
starboard batteries can be paralleled by
switching to "combine batteries." It is not
possible to parallel the engine batteries with
the house and electronics batteries.
Bow Thruster Main (Optional)
This main breaker protects the bow thruster
and its wiring.
Make sure the electronics and house and
the engines battery switches are in the "ON"
position whenever the engines are running
to ensure ALL 12-volt accessories will oper-
ate when they are needed. Current is sup-
plied to the automatic float switches for the
bilge pumps, stereo memory, high water
bilge alarm and the sump when the batteries
are connected and the battery switches are
"OFF" (battery switch panel feed breakers
must be "ON").
