Cruising in other conditions
Cruising in salt water
After operating in salt water, flush the cooling
water passages with fresh water to prevent
them from becoming clogged with salt de-
posits.
NOTE:
For cooling system flushing instructions, see
page 49.
Cruising in turbid water
Yamaha strongly recommends that you use
the optional chromium-plated water pump kit
(not available for some models) if you use
the outboard motor in turbid or muddy water
