Plumbing System
5.1 Fresh Water System
General
The fresh water system consists of a potable
water tank, distribution manifold, distribution
lines and a distribution pump. The pump is
equipped with an automatic pressure switch
and is accessed through a hatch under the
cabin floor. An in-line strainer located near
the pump protects the system from debris.
The tank is under the mid berth and is filled
through a labeled deck fill located on the
gunwale.
DO NOT confuse other deck fill with fresh
water fill. If toxic fluids or fuel is added to
fresh water tank, the system will be contami-
nated. DO NOT attempt to pump fuel out;
this system is not designed to pump fuel.
Fuel must be removed by qualified personal
only. Fuel in the fresh water systems will
also require replacement of that system and/
or many components.
Operation
Fill the water supply tank slowly through the
FRESH WATER FILL deck plate. After filling
tank, partially open all faucets. Turn on
“Fresh Water System” switch at the helm.
Allow the pump to run until all of the air is
purged from the system and a steady stream
of water is flowing from each outlet. Next,
turn off the faucets one by one. As the pres-
sure builds, the pump will automatically shut
off.
When properly primed and activated, the
water system will operate like the water sys-
tem in a home. An automatic pressure sen-
sor keeps the system pressurized. If the
system has been recently filled or has not
been used for an extended period, air may
accumulate at the pump and the system
may have to be re-primed.
Water System Manifold
The water system manifold provides a shut-
off valve for each fixture in the boat.
Access
to the water system manifold is from the mid-
berth.
Each line is a “home run.” There are
no fittings between the manifold and the fix-
ture to leak or fail. Should a problem occur
with any plumbing fixture in the boat, shut off
! DANGER
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Fuel and their vapors are highly explo-
sive when exposed to open flame or
spark, resulting in death or serious
injury. Do not confuse deck fills.
