SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
Before Each Use
Prior to Starting the Engine
Review the Safety Checks and Services section of this Owner’s
Manual. There are important functions that must be followed before,
during and after every outing, without fail! The Safety Checks and
Services notes that all drain plugs must be reinstalled prior to oper-
ating the boat!
Inspect Seacock Strainer
Because a clogged seacock strainer puts undue strain on the
engine(s), the strainer should be checked prior to starting the boat.
The seacock strainer is standard on all boats.
Step 1
Open and lift the cover.
Step 2
Remove the filter and inspect for debris. Manually clean the strainer.
Step 3
Check for debris and remove any that is inside the sea strainer.
Step 4
Return the lid and tighten in place.
