ﬁed by a black plastic cover that rotates to the open and closed

positions. The connector has an automatic valve that is always

closed until the washdown hose is connected.

The hose requires a special ﬁtting that snaps into the connector

and activates the automatic valve. The cover on the connector

should always be in the closed position to keep the connector

clean when the washdown hose is not attached. Contact your

Albemarle dealer for information on replacement ﬁttings and

hoses.

ALWAYS TURN THE RAW WATER PUMP SWITCH TO

THE “OFF” POSITION WHEN LEAVING THE BOAT

UNATTENDED.

6.3 Livewell

Sea water is provided to the livewell pump by a thru-hull ﬁtting.

This pump is designed to carry a constant ﬂow of water to the

livewell. There is a sea strainer on the intake side of the pump

located in the aft bilge compartment. This should be checked

frequently and cleaned as necessary. The pump is activated

by the Livewell breaker in the DC panel and a switch in the

cockpit switch panel.

An overﬂow tube in the drain ﬁtting automatically controls

the water level in the livewell. Always turn the pump off at the

breaker panel when the livewell is not in use.

To ﬁll the livewell, insert the overﬂow tube into the drain

ﬁtting at the bottom of the livewell. Make sure the valve at

the intake thru-hull ﬁtting is open and activate the Livewell

breaker. When the water level reaches the overﬂow, it will

begin to circulate.

To drain the livewell, turn off the livewell pump and pull out the

overﬂow tube in the drain ﬁtting at the bottom of the livewell.

When the livewell has completely drained, use the washdown

hose to ﬂush the livewell and drain of debris.

Note: Do not use the livewell as a dry storage area when

it is not in use. Sea water could accidently be

delivered to the livewell from the thru-hull ﬁtting

and damage equipment stored there.

6.4 Air Conditioning and

Optional Freezer

The air conditioners and bait freezer are sea water cooled.

240-volt centrifugal raw water pumps supply sea water that

cools the condensing units as it circulates through the system

and is discharged overboard. The pump for the ﬂybridge air

conditioner and freezer is located below the water line in the

engine compartment and activated whenever 240-volt current

is available and the air conditioning or freezer system is operat

ing. The pump for the salon and lower berth air conditioners

in located in the forward bilge compartment.

Sea water is supplied to each pump from a thru-hull ﬁtting

located in the hull near the pump. A sea strainer between the

pump and thru-hull ﬁtting protects the system from contami

nants that could damage the pump or the system. Make sure

the pumps receive adequate sea water by periodically cleaning

the sea strainer baskets. The procedure for cleaning strainer

is outlined in the maintenance section of this chapter. You

also should refer to the manufacturer owner’s manuals for

more information on the operation and maintenance of the air

conditioners and freezer .
