7 2. Fueling, Refueling Boat Each fuel tank holds 222 gallons for total 444 gallons. Turn the ignition keys ON to read the Pilothouse fuel gauges. But fuel with engines OFF. Estimate Fill. Estimate the number of gallons to add to each tank based on the fuel gauge reading. For example, if gauge shows ¾ full, anticipate 55-gallons; if ½ full, 110- gallons. NOTE It is good practice to refuel before the tanks reach ¾ empty. The best reason is to avoid the anxiety of searching for fuel. Fuel Fill Cap. The FUEL FILL CAP for each tank is located on the deck, aft of the pilothouse doors. Fuel vents are located opening. Remove FILL CAP with the CAP REMOVAL TOOL. Oil Sorbs. Have oil sorbs handy to soak up spilled fuel. The may be provided at fuel dock; some spares may be in forward engine room also. Diesel Hose. At the pump, ensure the attendant provides the correct fuel hose ask DIESEL; repeat DIESEL. Ensure the nozzle is placed into the DIESEL deck fill opening (and not the sewage holding tank). Recheck everything to avoid a catastrophe. NOTE On some fuel docks, the hose length is insufficient to reach the opposite side fill cap by being stretched around the pilothouse and thus the boat must be repositioned to allow filling the opposite tank. Pump Control. If necessary, position a crewmember to call out the number of gallons/liters on pump. Place nozzle into the tank opening. Pump slowly and evenly. Note sound of the fuel flow. Pumping too fast will interfere with escaping air and spew fuel. As tank fills, the gurgle will rise in pitch. Pay attention to the TANK OVERFLOW VENT on the outside below opening. Spurting indicates tank is nearly full. Recheck (or have someone check) the fuel gauge. Be prepared to catch spilled fuel from the overflow vent. Top off carefully. Fuel Filler Cap. Replace each tank fill cap and DO NOT over-tighten. Clean spills with oil sorbs for environmental and health reasons. Wash hands with soap and water thoroughly.

8 2.1 Fuel Management The FUEL MANAGEMENT PANEL is located beneath the hatch opening in the front engine compartment. Fuel is directed/returned from/to either tank to the engines and generator using the supply valves. Recheck the position of the valve levers when entering or exiting the engine compartment to ensure they are set properly. NOTE Normally, all levers are in vertical ON position, returning fuel to same supply tank. 3. BOAT OPERATION Become familiar with the various systems outlined in this manual. Salish Spirit has features designed for comfort, convenience, and safety. Proper use of these features will promote a safe and relaxed trip. Important Points Pre-Operation. Remember WOBBS each morning: Water Coolant, Oil, Bilge, Belts, and Sea Strainer. Any problem is easier to fix while moored and is more difficult while adrift. Electrical. Monitor both AC and DC electrical systems diligently. Be aware of power use, available power sources, and charging rates. Turn off non-essential electrical devices. Cruising RPM. Sustained engine speed for cruising is 2300 RPM (about 80-percent power) for speed of about 16-knots (depending upon weight of fuel, water, and provisions). Cruising at RPM can achieve 7-9 knots and will reduce fuel consumption per mile by about one-half. Avoid pro-longed engine RPM above Minor Repairs. Lubricants, common spare parts, and tools are located in the engine compartment and beneath the salon portside seat (see Appendices C and D). Protection. Protect interior from damage vinyl furnishing, headliners, mattresses, wallpaper, woodwork, countertops, carpet, and appliances. Wipe/wash spills on the gel-coat. 3.1 Engine Inspection, Forward Engine Compartment Turn ON lights in the engine compartments at the ENGINE ROOM LIGHT switch on the Pilothouse DC Panel. Raise the passageway staircase hatch to enter the forward engine compartment. Fuel Management Panel. Just forward of the hatch opening, note the position of the valve levers on the FUEL MANAGEMENT PANEL. Normally, all levers will be in vertical position. The generator may use either tank, but be sure send and receive tanks are same. Primary Fuel Filters. Check the glass bowls of the PRIMARY FUEL FILTERS on the port and starboard bulkheads for water or debris. Use a paper cup to catch the mixture. Rotate the thumb-wheel valve. Drain to remove water and debris. Recheck shortly after refueling. Generator and Heater Filters. On the starboard bulkhead, check the glass bowl of the GENERATOR FUEL FILTER for water or debris. Check the glass bowl of the HEATER FUEL FILTER for water or debris. Drain as necessary. Hydraulic Shift Reservoir. On the starboard bulkhead, check the gauge on the HYDRAULIC SHIFT RESERVOIR. Pressure should be about PSI for best operation. A pump is located in Tools if pressure needs to be restored. Water Tank Selection. On the port bulkhead, note the position of the WATER TANK SELECTOR valve water is drawn from either the forward or aft water tanks located beneath the forward stateroom. If the FRESHWATER PUMP continues to run when the faucets are off, the usual cause is an empty tank.

9 3.2 Main Engine Compartment From the Forward Engine Compartment, remove the bulkhead hatch to the main engine compartment and set it aside. Easiest access to check fluids is to pull the engine hatches on the salon floor. The following items will be checked by Crown Yacht Charters before your trip. General Condition. Look for abnormal condition (loose connections, leaks, chaffing, etc). Note the general condition of HOSES, FUEL LINES, and AIR FILTERS. Engine Coolant. Check the ENGINE COOLANT reservoirs normal level is about ½ full. Oil Level. With a paper towel or rag handy, remove the oil dipstick. A pair of etch marks on each dipstick indicates minimum and maximum oil level. If it is necessary to add oil, raise the floorboards in the Salon to open the top of the engine compartment. Open the oil filler cap on piston #1 valve cover. Pour oil through a funnel. Recheck the dipstick. Wipe spills. WARNING DO NOT OVERFILL the engine oil. More is NOT better and may cause damage. Recheck oil level periodically. Report unusual oil consumption (or oil creation). Transmission Fluid. Check the TRANSMISSION FLUID level in each transfer case. Raise the dipstick on top of the transfer case housings. Replace tightly to prevent contamination. Seacocks. Ensure the RAW WATER SEACOCK valves are in the open position (lever in- line with valve). Check the glass container for debris. If necessary, close the seacock, loosen the thumbscrews on the cover, clean the strainer, and reassemble the cover. WARNING Open seacock after cleaning or the engine will overheat. Bilge Pumps. Lift the center panel of the engine compartment floor. Activate the automatic bilge pump manually by lifting on the float tab switch. If defective, take necessary steps to determine the cause and fix this is the first line of defense in case of flooding. 3.3 Lacerate When in the standard CENTERED position on the dash on the Pilothouse, all pumps are in AUTOMATIC Mode and the orange light will come on if any pumps does when on automatic. Switch down for manual and a blue light will be displayed. BE SURE THAT THE PUMPS ARE NOT RUNNING ACCIDENTALLY WHICH CAN OCCUR BY HITTING THE BRIDGE SWITCHES WITH YOUR KNEES OR WHEN INSTALLING THE CONTROLS COVER. Open the starboard Lacerate hatch at the Cockpit. Steering Fluid. On the transom, note the STEERING FLUID level in the container. Trim Tab Fluid. On the transom, note the TRIM TAB FLUID level in the container. Battery Fluid. After a week of use, check the BATTERY FLUID levels in the batteries. Ensure the water covers the metal plates. Top off with DISTILLED water. WARNING Use DISTILLED WATER only bottled water is NOT distilled water and will destroy the batteries. Do NOT overfill a cell is full when fluid just touches the vent slots inside the fill opening there must be an air gap for bubbling gas to escape.

10 3.4 Engine Startup Use the following procedure for engine startup. Engine Switch. At the top of the DC Electrical Panel below the meter, turn ON the PORT and STARBOARD Engine switches. Trim Tab Switch. At the DC Electrical Panel lower right, turn ON the TRIM TAB switch. Gear Shifts. At the helm station, move the GEAR SHIFTS forward and backward to check freedom of movement. Then, position shifts to the neutral (vertical) position the start- safety switch will NOT allow the starter to engage if shift lever is other than neutral position. Throttles. Move the THROTTLES forward and backward to check freedom of movement. Then, position throttles to the idle position (aft position). Ignition Key. Insert key into the IGNITION SWITCHES. Start one engine at a time as described below. One spare set of engine and door keys are in the Pilothouse drawer. Pre-Heat. Turnkey clockwise until the ENGINE ALARM sounds and ENGINE PRE- HEAT LAMP (orange) is ON. Wait for the pre-heat lamp to turn OFF (alarm pitch will rise also). Start. Turn the key fully clockwise to engage the starter motor. NOTE If the starter motor does not engage, check Engine switch on the DC panel is ON. Then, recheck/re-adjust the neutral position of the gear shift. Difficult Starting. It may be necessary to add a slight amount of throttle to start, especially in cold weather. If engine cranks slowly or fails to turn over, check the condition of the engine battery on the DC ELECTRICAL PANEL. If the battery is low, press and hold the BATTERY PARALLEL switch on the Helm Panel to combine engine batteries. Attempt to restart engine. Warm-up. Raise the engine speed slowly to at least 1000 RPM on the TACHOMETER. Warm the engine for about 2 minutes. NOTE Raise engine speed to above 1000 RPM during warm-up. This turns off the engine pre-heater, and reduces the recharging load on the alternators considerably. Gauges. The oil pressure should indicate at about 40 PSI within 10 seconds. Note readings on VOLTMETER, OIL PRESSURE GAUGE, TEMPERATURE GAUGE, and FUEL GAUGE. WARNING If oil pressure is low, shutdown the engine, inspect the engine compartment and find possible cause (for example, a loose and leaking oil filter.) Exhaust Water. Go to cockpit and ensure the ensure cooling water is flowing through the ENGINE EXHAUSTS at corner. WARNING If engine overheats or there is no cooling water in the exhaust, stop the engine. Check the seacock position. Check the water strainer for debris. Check for a broken engine belt, which turns the water pump. Restart the engine, and re-check water flow at the exhaust. If water is not flowing properly, the RAW WATER PUMP may need service. Seek assistance. Repeat the procedure above for the other engine.

11 3.5 Engine Operation Monitor engine operation while underway. Oil Pressure. Check oil gauges frequently. Oil pressure should remain above 40 PSI. NOTE The oil pressure gauge may flicker this usually indicates the oil pressure switch may need servicing. The engine may be operated safely if the pressure gauge flickers and the low oil pressure warning alarm is silent. Coolant Temperature. Coolant temperature should remain 150 to 200 degrees Fahrenheit. WARNING If an engine overheats or the alarm sounds, stop the engine. Do an engine inspection to determine cause. General Performance. Look and listen for changes in engine performance, sound, and loss of RPM, or appearance that may indicate need for service. An EAR PROTECTOR is in the engine forward compartment for visual inspections while underway. 3.6 Engine Shutdown Use the following procedure for engine shutdown. Cooling. Allow time for gradual and uniform cool-down of engines. The time engaged in docking the boat is usually sufficient. Throttles. Move each THROTTLE to the idle position. Ignition Key. Turn each ignition key to OFF position. Engine Switch. At the DC Electrical Panel, turn OFF the PORT and STARBOARD Engine switches. Electronics. Check instrument switches on the Bridge and Pilothouse and turn off DC electrical devices or electronics. Also, turn off switches at the DC Electrical Panel. 3.7 Getting Underway Shore Power The SHORE POWER INLETS are located on the starboard side near the pilothouse. Power cords are stowed in beneath the starboard Lacerate hatch. Shore Power. Go to the shore station and turn the Shore Power switch OFF. Then, disconnect the cord from the shore receptacle. CAUTION To avoid electrical shock by accidentally dropping a hot cord into the water, disconnect the shore-side plug first before handling the cord. Boat Inlet. Disconnect the cord from the boat inlet and replace/tighten the inlet cover.. WARNING If the boat inlet is hot and has burnt prongs or connector damage, discontinue use and take steps to service. Use other cords if available. A spare 30A boat inlet and a spare 30A cord connectors are in the Electrical Cord Box. Cord Stowage. Stow POWER CORDS beneath the starboard Lacerate hatch. Extra 30- amp extensions cords, as well as a 50-amp cord and adapters, are stowed there also. Adapters. There are several CORD ADAPTERS which are stowed below the PILOTHOUSE AC ELECTRICAL cabinet. Use these to adapt the 30-amp power cord to 20- amp or 15-amp shore power receptacles. To reconnect shore power, reverse the procedure above, first plugging cord to the boat inlet, then to the shore station.

12 3.8 Inside Stowage Prepare the boat interior for cruising and rough sea conditions. Portholes. Close and lock the 2 Aft Stateroom PORTHOLES, 2 Mid Stateroom PORTHOLES, 2 Fwd Head PORTHOLES, and the 4 Forward Stateroom PORTHOLES. Fore Deck Hatches. Close and lock the 2 deck HATCHES above the Forward Stateroom. NOTE If water soaks a bunk, remove the cover and mattress and take steps to dry thoroughly, else mold and mildew may develop. Windows. Adjust or close Salon and Pilothouse windows. Glassware. Check Galley, Salon, Stateroom, Heads, and Bridge for items that will topple or spill while underway (drink glasses, cups, wine glasses, bowls, tall bottles, dishes, etc). Galley. Stow dishware, glasses, pots and pans in their respective cabinets and drawers. Push in all LATCH buttons. Cabinet items may spill out in rough seas. Loose Items. Secure cell phones, ipods, laptops, and other items left on counters. Ensure heavy items are secure. Put clothing inside CABINETS and DRAWERS and push-in the LATCH buttons. Doors. Close or latch Stateroom and Head DOORS to prevent swinging. Close the Bridge HATCH door or secure the open-door tie strap to prevent slamming shut as the boat rolls. 3.9 Bimini Cover The BIMINI may be deployed or stowed. To stow, release the canvas snaps from the mast. Fold the frame forward and secure the straps and frame in standing position. Wrap the BIMINI BOOT CANVAS around the Bimini the boot is normally stowed in the bridge refrigerator cabinet, lower shelf.

13 4. Cruising Operate the vessel from helm that provides visibility for the course, speed, weather, and sea conditions. Normally, close-quarter maneuvering is best from the bridge helm. Line Handling. Brief crewmembers on the departure plan. Assign duties for SPRING LINES, DOCK LINES, or assisting others. Limited Visibility. Turn ON the NAVIGATION LIGHTS at the DC Panel and helm switches. Trim Tabs. Ensure the TRIM TAB switch is ON at the DC Electrical Panel. For close quarter maneuvering, press both TRIM TAB switches to Bow-Up position to retract the trim vanes. This helps boat to move freely when backing. Throttles and Gear Shifts. Ensure the THROTTLES are idle or very low speed before engaging the GEAR SHIFTS to avoid stress on transmission. Fenders and Lines. After clearing traffic, crewmembers may stow FENDERS and lines. Cruising Trim. Before high-speed cruising, press both TRIM TAB switches to Bow- Down position (extends trim vanes downward). The raises the aft as it accelerates. Acceleration. Move THROTTLES smoothly, allowing the engines to power up. Equalize engine speeds on the ENGINE SYNCHRONIZER at the center of the helm panel. Cruise RPM. Normally, ENGINE SPEED for cruising is 2300 RPM (80% of rated engine power). This should achieve a satisfactory plane, depending upon trim configuration, weight, and sea condition. Choose a lower rpm for less fuel consumption rate. Cruising RPM will reduce fuel consumption rate by about one-half. Avoid engine speeds above 2300 RPM; but, vary the speed for short durations. Trim Adjustment. Perform trim adjustments carefully. In following-sea conditions or swells, favor a bow-up trim position to avoid plowing into waves. 4.1 Docking For docking, the bridge usually offers the greatest visibility all around. Listed below is equipment onboard for docking and mooring.

Determine marina layout, plan the maneuver, and inform the crew on how docking will take place (for example, land port or starboard, bow in or stern in). Fenders. Based on docking plan, deploy 3 or 4 fenders to the dock side at dock level. Deploy other fenders on opposite site to fend other docked boats (tie at gunwale/rail height) Line Handling. Lay out dock and spring lines in advance. Assign line-handling duties to crew. In good weather, an able crewmember may step off (not jump) from the swim step to tie the STERN LINE. Assign others at foredeck and mid-ship to assist with DOCK LINES and SPRING LINES. Helm Centering. Before entering the marina, reduce the throttle speed to about 800 rpm and synchronize the engines. Center the WHEEL to straighten the rudder. Trim Tab Retraction. Re-position the aft TRIM TABS to the Bow-Up position (press 8 to 10- seconds) to back and turn freely. Throttles and Gear Shifts. Use the engine GEARSHIFTS for close-quartering maneuvering. Avoid reliance on throttles.

14 5. ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS AC PANEL SIDE, LEFT SIDE DC PANEL SIDE, RIGHT SIDE Power Distribution. The boat electrical system is organized into TWO power distribution systems: DC (Direct Current) 12V boat systems, lights, and electronics AC (Alternating Current) 120V appliances, similar to household use DC System Sources. The DC power distribution system has five sources: House Battery Bank #1 supports main boat systems, lights, and electronics House Battery Bank #2 supports AC inverter, as well as DC devices. Starboard Engine Battery Starboard Engine starting Port Engine Battery Port Engine starting Generator Battery Diesel Generator starting AC System Sources. The AC power distribution system has three sources: Shore power supports all AC devices Diesel generator supports all AC devices AC/DC Inverter supports specific AC devices The boat s electrical distribution is controlled at the Pilothouse AC and DC ELECTRIC PANELS, the BATTERY SWITCH PANEL in the Salon aft port cabinet. When AC Shore Power or the Generator is not used, the DC batteries provide 12-volt DC power and inverted 120-volt AC power to selected devices. Batteries have limited capacity. Monitor the use of DC system carefully. Turn OFF unnecessary electrical devices and conserve battery power. Connect to shore power or generator to restore battery capacity through DC charging devices. AC and DC Panel breakers are labeled for all devices and circuits.

15 5.1 DC System Battery Banks and Switches The BATTERY BANKS supply power for DC lights, electronics, engine starting, generator starting, there are five battery banks: Battery or Battery Bank Port Engine Battery Starboard Engine Battery House Battery Bank #1 systems House Battery Bank #2 inverter Generator Battery Battery capacity is measured in ampere per hour (AH or amp-hr). A DC device rated 10-amps and turned-on 10-hours would consume 100-AH (#amperes multiplied by #hours equals AH). Note Each DC light bulb in salon, galley, or stateroom is about 0.8-amp. Count number of bulbs ON and multiply to estimate consumption (or see AH rate in the DC ammeter). Use DC lights wisely. If cruising for more than a week, remove battery fill caps and inspect the battery electrolyte fluid level. If the metal plates are exposed, add distilled water to cover. DO NOT overfill. Distilled water is normally stowed in the compartment beneath the port Lacerate hatch cover. WARNING Do NOT use bottled water it is NOT distilled water, and it will destroy a battery. Do NOT overfill a cell is full when the battery fluid just touches the vent collar inside the fill opening there must be an air gap in the collar for bubbling gas to escape. Panel Digital Multi-meter The BATTERY MULTI-METER is located on the DC panel. Rotate the battery switch between port, starboard, house 1, house 2, generator, and thruster. The left and right buttons on the meter will toggle the meter between voltage display and current display. Current (ampere) readings are for HOUSE 1 and HOUSE 2 battery banks only. A negative current value indicates discharging a positive value indicates charging. This is useful for monitoring power consumption of DC devices and for conserving battery power. Battery Charge Condition Battery charge activity can be checked through the panel digital multi-meter. While a battery bank is charging, the voltage may read from 13.1 to 14.4 volts depending on the battery state-of-charge. When a battery bank is at-rest (not charging), the voltage provides a rough indication of the state-of- charge and amphour capacity remaining in the battery bank. 100% state of charge, the meter will read approximately volts. Battery Charging and Combining 5.2 Engine Alternators. The ENGINE ALTERNATORS provide DC power to boat functions while underway (engine pre-heat, navigation, lighting, sanitation). Only excess capacity is being applied to charging batteries -- the time to reach full battery capacity using alternators only will be long. Engine speed above 1000 RPM will activate alternator charging; see meter movement at helm panel. To compensate for higher current demand (e.g engine pre-heaters in cold weather), raise engine speeds above 1000 RPM to raise alternator output. 5.3 House Battery Charger The BATTERY CHARGER provides charging to Port engine, Starboard engine, House Battery Bank #1 (boat systems and Bank #2 (inverter) (through the Battery Charging Relay) by Shore or Generator Power sources. Continuous charge output is approximately 50-Amps DC. Turn ON the BATTERY CHARGER switch on the Pilothouse AC Panel. The battery charger unit is located in the engine compartment portside. 5.4 Inverter Battery Charger The INVERTER CHARGER (Outback Model VFX-2812M) provides charging to House Battery Bank #2 (inverter) and the House Battery Bank #1 (boat systems) through the Battery Charging Relay when connected (see below). Continuous charge output is approximate 120-Amps DC. Ensure both the INVERTER AC SUPPLY switch and the INVERTER/CHARGER switch on the Pilothouse AC Panel are ON for charging when connected to Shore Power or Generator Power. These switches are normally ON. Turn OFF for maintenance.

16 House Batteries Automatic Charging Relay An AUTOMATIC CHARGING RELAY (ACR) connects House Battery Bank #1 (boat systems) and House Battery Bank #2 (inverter) during charging. When no charging is present, the relay disconnects (opens) to isolate banks. For example, if House Battery bank #2 (inverter) is discharging heavily, the ACR will disconnect to isolate Hose Battery Bank #1. Three LED indicators on the main pilothouse electrical panel on the aft side, show the following; GREEN Battery Bank #1 and Battery Bank #2 connected. I charge voltage is to a bank high, the LED will turn ON and connect the other bank in about 1 minute for charging. AMBER Either bank is being discharged. When the LED turns ON, the battery banks will disconnect in about 1 minute. RED Over-voltage (above 15-volts). The RED LED will turn ON, and the relay will disconnect battery banks. Note: The ACR is bypassed when the adjacent House Batteries Switch is in the Combine position. 5.5 HOUSE BATTERY SWITCH The switch is located forward of the generator next to the house battery-automatic charging relay ACR. When in ON position, the HOUSE BATTERIES SWITCH connects the House Battery Bank #1 to boat systems components and the House Battery Bank #2 to DC inverter components. When in the OFF position, both battery banks are disconnected from DC system. In exceptional cases, both House Battery Banks can be combined (for example, to carry an ailing battery bank or a failing charger). Turn the switch to the COMBINE position. CAUTION If one bank is severely discharged, a large current transfer will occur across the switch. Port Engine House Battery #2 ACR To supplement charging while underway, an AUTOMATIC CHARGING RELAY (ACR) can connect the House Battery Bank #2 (inverter) to the Port Engine alternator (via the port engine battery) When port engine is not operating, the relay disconnects to isolate the Port Engine Battery and House Battery Bank #2. Also, the port alternator is disconnected during engine cranking ( start isolation ) to avoid voltage spikes into the House DC system. NOTE The Battery Switch is ON normally. Turn OFF when maintaining either the port battery of the house battery banks. Engine Batteries Parallel Switch An ENGINE BATTERIES PARALLEL switch is provided at the pilothouse helm. It will combine STARBOARD ENGINE BATTERY and PORT ENGINE BATTERY in situation where an engine battery is too weak to start its engine. Circuit Breakers and Fuses The MASTER CIRCUIT BREAKERS for DC Accessory, Windlass, and Davit are located on the BATTERY PANEL in the Salon aft port cabinet. All DC device circuit breakers are located on Pilothouse DC panel. Accessory fuse blocks for electronics, such as VHF radio, are located beneath the helm stations. Some electronic equipment has secondary fuse protection located near the unit. 12-Volt DC Outlets 12-VOLT OUTLETS are located as follows: Forward Stateroom, two front of port side cabinet. 5.6 AC System AC Sources There are three sources for AC 120-volt power AC Source Source Location Service Capacity Shore Power 3x Inlets on Pilothouse Stb Side. Select breaker position on AC LINE 1 = 30-A LINE 2 electrical panel. Normally, Line 1 is sufficient for most needs = 30-A LINE 3 = 50-A Generator Select breaker position on AC electrical panel 50-A Inverter Automatic when Shore Power or Generator are not connected 30-A NOTE -- Shore Power and Generator are independent these systems cannot be joined to provide power simultaneously (breaker lockout).

17 The Inverter will provide power automatically to selected AC devices when Shore Power or Generator are NOT providing 120-V service. The total power consumption of AC components should not exceed the capacity of the shore power service. For example, if shore power is 30-amps and the consumption of appliance, motors, and lights is greater than 30-amps, the Line 1 AC circuit breaker will trip OFF. NOTE -- Monitor use of AC devices to remain within the capacity of shore power. 5.7 Shore Power Service Connection Most marinas offer 30-amp (30A) service. Plug the 30A cord between the boat inlet and shore receptacle. Shore POWER CORDS and extensions are found under the Lacerate starboard hatch. If the marina has 15-amp (15A), 20-amp (20A), or 50-amp (50A) service, connect the cord adapters to the shore power receptacle then to the cord. Possible combinations are shown in chart below. Shore Source Adapter Type Location Cord Line1 Line2 Line3 15A-125V 15A-125V to 30A-125V Pilothouse 30A Yes Yes N/A 20A-125V 20A-125V to 30A-125V Pilothouse 30A Yes Yes N/A 30A-125V None Needed 30A Yes Yes N/A 50A-125/250V 50A-125/250V to 30A-125V Pilothouse 30A Yes Yes N/A 50A-125V None Needed 50A N/A N/A Yes 50A-125/250V 50A-125/250V to 50A-125V Pilothouse 50A N/A N/A Yes NOTE THAT EACH CORD IS CLEARLY MARKED AT THE END. Shore power INLETS are located on Pilothouse starboard. Normally, use LINE 1 for dockside service and set the AC Panel for Line 1, Line 2, and Line 3 in parallel mode (see service options below). Before connecting, turn OFF the DOCKSIDE MASTER breaker on the AC master panel. First, connect the shore power cord to the boat. For safely, turn OFF the shore power receptacle circuit breaker. Then connect the cord to the receptacle. Finally, turn ON the shore power receptacle CAUTION Attach the shore power cord to the boat inlet first, then to dockside service last, to avoid risk of shock or injury if a hot cord is dropped into the water accidently.

18 Move power cord off pathways and protect from foot traffic. Coil excess. Hang cord out of the water. Turn ON the DOCKSIDE MASTER switch on the panel. The VOLTMETER will read 110 to 120-volts. WARNING Check the electrical panel polarity indicator. A red light indicates reverse polarity and is dangerous DO NOT engage the DOCKSIDE MASTER breaker switch. Immediately turn OFF the shore power source, disconnect cord, and notify dock or marina management. Turn ON individual AC component breakers, as required. If the dockside power capacity is exceeded, the breaker will trip. Turn off excess AC devices before resetting the breaker. Service Line Options Normally, LINE 2 and LINE 3 on the Pilothouse AC Panel are operating in parallel mode with LINE 1. Parallel mode is setup when LINE 2 selector switch points to Line 1-2 and LINE 3 Selector switch points to Line 1-3. The MASTER breakers for Lines 2 and 3 are disabled. In parallel mode, total current being used is the sum of the three AMMETER readings. If the total current exceeds the capacity of shore power service, the LINE1 DOCKSIDE MASTER breaker will trip OFF. Turn off AC components to remain within the service capacity If more shore power service is desired and available, LINE 2 and/or LINE 3 can be switched to normal mode to deliver power to their respective AC circuits. In normal mode, the current is read on each line s AMMETER. NOTE The most common usage, and the easiest method, is parallel mode. 5.8 Generator Operation The Westerbeke diesel GENERATOR is located beneath the Lacerate center hatch. Before operating, ensure the generator SEACOCK is OPEN and the strainer is clear of debris. Check the oil level dipstick if operating over long periods. Check coolant level inside the portside cockpit locker. The GENERATOR CONTROL is located on the Pilothouse AC panel. To start the generator, rotate the GENERATOR CONTROL to RUN position. Press and hold the PRE- HEAT/OVERRIDE switch for about 10-seconds to pre-heat the generator. Then, while continuing to press the pre-heat switch, rotate the CONTROL knob to the START position, releasing the control knob to RUN position after the generator starts. About 5-seconds, release the PRE-HEAT switch. Do not operate the starter for more than 15 seconds. If the generator does not start, wait 30 seconds, repeat steps above, and then attempt another start. NOTE This 8kw gen set is a new rebuilt unit with ZERO hours and should work as advertised, but if you have any problems, please contact Crown Yacht Charters and they will have a mechanic call you back. Turn ON the GENERATOR breaker switch. The green light will indicate power is available. Observe reading of 110 to 120 volts on the AC voltage meter. Turn ON AC component breakers as required. Monitor the Generator oil pressure, water temperature, and voltage gauges on the AC panel. The generator will shut-down automatically if oil pressure and temperature are unsatisfactory. Fuel is supplied from either port or starboard fuel tanks. The Fuel Management Board valves levers indicate source selection (normally vertical position). The levers should be matched so return fuel is routed back to the source tank. Otherwise, fuel would be transferred from one tank to the other and may overfill a tank and spill overboard through the tank vent.

19 The GENERATOR BATTERY cutoff switch is located in the aft cabinet port side of the Salon. When generator is turned OFF, a squeal will be heard from the cockpit portside. This is normal - the sound is from the exhaust seawater siphon and indicates the cooling system is working properly. GENERATOR SWITCH AND PREHEAT OVERRIDE 5.9 Inverter Power The INVERTER provides AC power when Shore Power or Generator is not connected. Panel Panel Switch Name Purpose Switch DC Inverter DC Supply Connects inverter to House Battery Bank ON AC Inverter AC Supply Connects inverter to 120-V source ON AC Inverter Connects inverter to 120-V devices (see below) ON Three switches on the DC and AC panels control the inverter operation. The INVERTER CONTROL (Outback Mate2) beneath the salon corner seat provides monitoring and control of the inverter. Normally, this is for troubleshooting The inverter provides power to the following 120-v AC circuits as indicated: AC Panel Switch Device AC LINE Inverter?

21 6. Anchor Use and Operation A: My finger is on the swing arm with Cam Dog that should have engaged after setting the anchor and especially if there is concerned about anchor chain paying out in winds or bad conditions. B: For normal operations the tension knob should be turned clockwise for tighten control and is sometimes used in conjunction with line to allow the barrel to free turn free. Not applicable here. E: You can now control the deploy or retrieval of the anchor using the switches at the helm or from the foot pedals on the bow near the windlass as seen below. NOTE: The chain is marked in red for 10 feet from anchor, every 25 in yellow and 100 yellow red and repeats thereafter. G: Access to the Anchor Locker and Chain is from behind the Master Stateroom Mirror. For Safety, attach the snubber to the cleat and the anchor. C: Open the cap around the anchor chain to allow for proper pay out of the chain! D: With the Windlass Control to the ON position

22 6.1 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Anchoring: When laying at anchor use a chain stopper, nylon/chain bridle or snubber line to prevent snatching and direct load on the windlass main shaft. Never use the windlass as a mooring bollard!! Retrieving Chain: Before operating the windlass tighten the clutch with the handle in a clockwise direction, then remove the handle. If the anchor is buried hard, motor forward to pull it free after hardening up on the windlass, to ease the load on the windlass. Rope Hauling on the Capstan: The capstan can be operated independently of the gypsy. Secure the anchor rode (via Chain lock, Gypsy lock or Snubber) then release the clutch. The windlass capstan can now be operated separately. Electric operation: To release the anchor down reverse the motor by pushing remote switch to down which drops the chain and the anchor immediately. When the anchor is at the desired depth, the windlass can be stopped by letting go of the switch, the chain and rope can then be lowered further by releasing the manual clutch. Always keep well clear of the windlass when releasing or retrieving the chain and anchor. Keep fingers, hair and clothing well clear when the windlass is in operation. Auto Anchor Launching: Two direction windlasses are now standard. If the anchor and anchor roller can be positioned so that it falls as soon as the windlass is reversed, the whole operation can then be carried out remotely from aft or fly bridge. Remote switch controls are self-centering and stop the windlass when the switch is released. Important Note The anchor end chain is painted at intervals of 10 red, every 25 from the anchor end in yellow, then red - yellow at 100 and yellow red yellow at 200, not marked after that but a great deal of chain remains but there is never a reason to deploy more than 200. This will allow the operator to judge how much anchor chain is deployed and also when the anchor is almost up. Go gently with the last ten feet after seeing the RED only marking when retrieving the anchor by letting go of the switch, rather than waiting for the anchor to fly up over the roller and bang tight, putting excessive load onto the bow roller, windlass and fore deck. 6.2 ANCHORING The basic anchoring technique consists of selecting the anchorage location, dropping the anchor, laying out sufficient scope, setting the hook, and assessing how the vessel will drift/rotate. Review anchoring techniques in the Chapman s Piloting Book. Working Anchor The WORKING ANCHOR is a Bruce-type anchor weighing 66-lbs (30-kg) mounted on the bow roller. It is attached to 300-ft of 5/16 Hi-Test chain The rode is passed through the HAUSE PIPE to the ANCHOR RODE LOCKER located behind the mirror in Forward Stateroom. The rode is deployed and retrieved using the Muir Cougar WINDLASS. Anchor Deployment Before using WINDLASS, free the LOCKING CAMS on the winch sprocket. First, lift and free the cam on the aft lever and rotate the lever backward to the deck. The winch sprocket will now rotate freely for power use. Ensure the clutch has sufficient drag use the WINCH CRANK in the forward deck locker to if necessary to adjust the drag. NOTE The forward cam is used to secure the sprocket (REMOVED). Both cams may be used if manual retrieval of the rode is necessary. Use the WINCH HANDLE on the lever to aid cranking. Turn ON the WINDLASS POWER switch in the Pilothouse Panel left side. If no power, check the WINDLASS MASTER BREAKER Switch in the Salon Aft Battery Switch Panel. At the foredeck, uncover the HAUSE PIPE to free the rode. Uncover the FOOT PEDAL CONTROLS. Maneuver the boat to the selected anchor point. Note the depth on sounder. Tap gently on the DOWN control allowing the anchor to slide over the bow roller. The anchor may need a nudge to clear the roller. Avoid swinging the anchor. CAUTION Ensure the chain will run free from the chain locker. A chain tangle or stoppage will trip the windlass circuit breaker and freeze operation. To free up chain, go to forward stateroom, lift the front mirrored panel cover, and inspect the chain locker. At the Salon aft Battery Panel, reset/squeeze-in the slide on the windlass circuit breaker. Re-check green light at the WINDLASS POWER switch at Pilothouse Electric panel. For chain anchoring, consider a minimum 4:1 scope. Example to achieve 4:1 in 25-ft water, deploy 120-ft [25-ft depth+5- ft freeboard, multiplied by 4). Compensate for depth changes during the tidal cycle and the holding power of the bottom. Consider swing of nearby boats. The general rule is, the more scope, the better, especially in unsettled weather. A common fault is too little.

23 Deploy ANCHOR RODE using the snub and feel technique (tension is maintained) as rode is deployed to scope. Markers are placed at 30-feet intervals indicating chain/rode length deployed. Drift or idle back to tighten the rode, then reverse engines in idle to set the anchor. Look for boat movement by aligning shore reference points. Shorten rode if necessary to reduce swing. Rotate the aft swing arm and cam in to lock the windlass gear. Turn OFF the windlass power switch. CAUTION Monitor the boat s position to ensure the anchor remains set. With the variety of bottoms in Pacific Northwest waters, this is very important, especially during strong winds, abrupt changes in wind direction, or directional changes of water current. ADD. NOTE In an emergency where anchor cannot be retrieved or must be jettisoned, a bolt cutter is available beneath the Salon starboard seat. Anchor Retrieval The windlass uses 100-amps DC Electric power; therefore, operate the windlass with the engines running to supplement battery power. Turn ON the WINDLASS POWER SWITCH at the Pilothouse AC Panel. Uncover HAUSE PIPE and ensure rode will pass freely from the winch sprocket to the chain locker. Turn ON the WASHDOWN switch on the DC Panel. Open the FOREDECK LOCKER, retrieve the hose, and prepare to wash the anchor rode and anchor. Move the boat toward the anchor point. Press the UP control to retrieve slack rode, rather than pulling on the rode. Continue to retrieve slack until above the anchor point. Wash the rode and anchor as it rises. Coordinate maneuver with the helmsman to hover above the anchor point while the anchor breaks free from the bottom. As the anchor nears surface, allow anchor to hang vertically before raising above surface this avoids swinging against hull. Tap gently on the UP control and rotate while hanging, and guide the anchor into the proper position for the bow roller. Gently stow anchor on the pulpit. Wash the anchor. CAUTION Tap the pedal controls in tiny bursts when anchor is near pulpit to avoid binding anchor, over-tightening rode, and damaging the pulpit. Connect a flexible tie-cord between the anchor and windlass to snug the anchor and chain. Close the plastic covers on the FOOT PEDAL CONTROLS. Turn OFF the WINDLASS power switch at the AC Panel and the WASHDOWN switch on the DC panel. 6.3 Mooring Buoy Mooring buoys are topped with a metal triangle and/or ring. A printed plate indicates the capacity or restriction. Before mooring, determine whether the buoy is public and the boat is within capacity. Sometimes, the metal ring attached to the buoy chain can be lifted to attach a boat line. Often the chain is very heavy, so a strong crewmember should assist. The helmsman should maneuver from downwind or down current. It is helpful to have a free crewmember point his/her arm to the buoy continuously. The body language will tell the helmsman the buoy location relative to the bow as it disappears from view. As the boat nears the buoy, a crewmember inserts the line into the metal ring, and sets the hook. For overnight, thread a dock line through the ring. Secure line to boat, forming a bridle between bow cleats. If necessary, use the dinghy to setup. 6.4 Stern Tie Securing the boat s stern to shore is necessary when the anchorage is crowded, when swing space is limited, or when rotation around the anchor point is not desired. A 20-ft lightweight propylene line is available for a stern-tie line. It is on a roll (yellow) beneath the cockpit starboard hatch. In anchorages where stern-tie is common, metal rings are setup on the shore. To setup stern-tie for easy retrieval, run a free-end of line to shore with dinghy, thread the free end through the metal ring, and return the free end to the boat, doubling the line. When leaving, release one free-end and retrieve the line by pulling it through the ring. NOTE When setting up double-back shore line, tie ends to same cleat. If ends are tied apart, the boat s sideways motion pulls the line back and forth through the ring the ring may saw the line.

24 7. SANITATION SYSTEM Use ONLY MARINE TISSUE in the toilets this is very important. Pipes, valves, and pumps may clog. An inoperable toilet is an inconvenience to everyone, as well as a nasty, VERY costly repair. Train crew and children to use the toilet. Monitor use to ensure no foreign objects (non-waste items) are thrown into the toilet. Whenever the HOLDING TANK (TankWatch) Light on the Pilothouse DC Panel is RED, take steps to dispose sewage in the holding tank. 7.1 Marine Toilet Turn ON the two TOILET switches and the WATER PRESSURE switch on the DC panel. These toilets draw water 100% from the FRESH WATER SYSTEM and NOT from SEA WATER, so be sure that your WATER TANKS ARE FULL or FILLED often. CAUTION Never ever put tampons, sanitary napkins, Kleenex, paper towels, household toilet paper, or food scraps into the toilet. Use ONLY marine tissue paper -- it dissolves. If remediation efforts fail to restore operation, the toilet system will need service - that means, opening pipes and tank (a nasty task). The frequent cause is disregard of the Never Ever rule. Instruct your family and guests as this is important to safe operation. There is no manual back up so insure that the toilets are used as intended and cleared 100% when flushed. Flush more than once if needed. 7.2 Guest Head Operation of toilet is well marked. Do not put anything in the toilet that you have not eaten first except toilet paper. Use Normal button for larger quantities and Low otherwise. Or to insure full draining, push the Empty button. The switch marked Sump Drain is for the shower and sink to insure full draining of water. The toilet will refill with fresh water after flushing. The storage under the sink contains access to the Marine Grade biodegradable toilet paper and additional supply. Use this type ONLY! There is a bowl plunger to the right of the toilet if needed. BE SURE TO NOT OVER FILL THE HOLDING TANK. THERE IS A LIGHT INDICATOR ON THE PILOTHOUSE PANEL AND WHEN IT TURNS RED, THE TANK IS FULL AND SHOULD BE PUMPED OUT AT ONCE. THERE ARE VERY FEW PLACES BESIDES OPEN OCEAN WHERE OVERBOARD DISCHARGE IS ALLOWED. THIS BOAT CAME WITH THAT OPTION BUT SHOULD NOT BE USED EXCEPT IN ALLOWED AREAS OR MAJOR FINES COULD BE ACCESSED.

25 7.3 Main Master Head This new toilet works differently than the guest head. If there is water in the bowl and very little to flush, the Flush button is ok to use, but if there is a larger amount and toilet paper in the bowl, push the Fill button first and HOLD until there is a reasonable amount of water to clear the bowl when you the push Flush again or simply toggle the Fill button to the down position to empty. Both toilets draw water ONLY from onboard supply and NOT from the sea. Thus water supply is limited and filling of water tanks anytime you fuel or dock is a good idea. Again, the Marine Grade biodegradable toilet paper roll and supply is kept under the sink along with some cleaning supplies. There is an ample supply of towels but feel free to bring your own to lessen the amount of times needing to do laundry. Please also note that there is a plunger and waste basket in the head as well, 7.4 Holding Tank Pump Out There is FREE pump out for holding tanks at the floating dock at Cap Sante Marina just east of C dock. Pump out of holding tanks is included in moorage cost at Roche Harbor and is low cost in Friday Harbor. There is manual free pump out at Reid Harbor on Stuart Island. Reid Harbor Boat Pumpout This facility is open year-round, 24 hours a day. This facility has a floating dock available yearround. There are two slips available for pumpout usage. Access to this pumpout is limited to vessels with a length of no more than 60 feet. The pumpout is located on a barge. There is a stationary pumpout located at Reid Harbor. This facility also has a portable toilet dump station located at the Reid Harbor barge. Marine Pump out Stations Marine Pump-out Stations are located at many fuel docks or special sanitation barges. Use each refueling stop as an opportunity to empty the holding tank. Follow instructions on the pump station. In larger marinas, mobile pump-out services can come to the boat. Remove the WASTE CAP located on starboard side. CAUTION -- Check deck fitting to ensure it is WASTE -- not the DIESEL FILLCAP. Most stations will have a rubber adapter to seal the opening. Insert the adaptor; connect the hose. Turn ON the machine, then OPEN the lever on the pump handle. CLOSE lever when finished. If water is available, re-fill the sanitation tank partially, and repeat pump out. This reduces odors. Replace the WASTE CAP.

26 7.5 Self Pump Out This is normally only a 5-minute job and can eliminate major issues for your happy boating experience if not completed on a regular basis, at least every other day and more often depending upon use and people on board. Remove the WASTE cap, and be sure that it is the Waste Cap, using the Key provided and stored in the pilothouse drawer. This cap is NOT connected and intended that way so waste does not come in contact with the safety wire that would have to sit on deck. Carefully remove the cap and store temporarily possibly in the well to the right near the drain, so it does not get lost. A Insert the pump out nozzle end, HOLD DOWN with one hand to insure proper suction and no spillage out the sides, Open the valve for pump out and turn on the pump at the station. When complete, you will see little to no fluids moving through the line in the clear plastic section. Shut off the pump station suction, then close the shut off valve on the hose. Wait a few seconds, then carefully remove and turn the open nozzle end to face up so to eliminate spills, return the hose to the station rack, and wipe off any residue around the waste pipe, properly dispose of the towel and reinstall the cap and secure with the key and you are done. AS THE CAPATIAN, YOUR JOB INCLUDES WATCHING CAREFULLY, TO CHECK TO SEE WHEN THE TANK FULL RED LIGHT MAY BE ON AT THE PILOTHOSE ELECTRICAL PANEL. BE A HAPPY BOATER AND DON T WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE THIS LIGHT, AND DO NOT USE HEADS IF THE RED LIGHT IS ON. 7.6 Sanitation Holding Tank The SANITATION HOLDING TANK capacity is 48 gallons. Note the sewage production rate of the crew this is about 1 gallon per toilet flush. Take steps to dispose sewage from holding tank. An overfilled tank may break a hose, clog the tank vent, or burst a seal. The result will be indescribable catastrophe and VERY costly repair, and running a trip. Sanitation Tank Warning The HOLDING TANK MONITOR is located on the Pilothouse DC panel. Turn ON the HOLDING TANK MONITOR switch on the DC Panel. A red warning light ON indicates the tank is full. Take steps to empty the tank (see below). NOTE -- Do not rely completely on the red warning light if in doubt; pump out at once. 7.7 Overboard Discharge CAUTION Be familiar with the laws concerning discharging sewage overboard. To discharge, turn ON the HOLDING TANK DISCHARGE switch on the Pilothouse DC Panel. Depress both MACERATOR ROCKER SWITCHES together on the Pilothouse DC Panel. Listen to the discharge sound (starboard midship outlet). Gurgling indicates the tank is empty. Check with the Charter Company to be sure that the Y Valve is open. We do NOT recommend this use it is generally only allowed when in the open ocean beyond the coast. The tank empties within a few seconds.

Just lift the lid to the right and insert the metal end of the vacuum hose. The circuit breaker for this at the panel on the pilothouse must be on. There is also ad off and on switch left on normally. Bags are inserted in the lower section and some extra bags are stored with the vacuum hose.

28 9.1 Washer / Dryer While the washer / dryer works well, you may find shore laundry services much easier to access and use, and probably more efficient. If you intend to use the washer / dryer, please read the manual in this cabinet, bottom left. Access to shut off valves is in the 2 nd birth and as in the photos above. 10. Bow Storage Lockers and supplies There is a 50 hose stored in the triangular locker in the starboard bow. The hose bid there is for SALT Water wash down ONLY and not activated at this time. The WHITE hoses can and should be used for fresh water fill or for attaching to the fresh door, offering pressure shore water. Additional line storage at bow hatches. 11. Pilothouse storage and equipment The pilothouse drawer to the right of the helm is sometimes hard to open. When the pull knob is out, you might also need to pull slightly on the right end. In this drawer are the engine keys and special keys for opening all fuel, water and waste filler pipes. Also, LED Flare, (rotate plastic head to the left to activate), misc. screws, light bulbs, batteries, etc. Above the pilothouse seating there is storage for a variety of books and mauals. There is a GFI outlet on the port side of the helm controls. Additional parts, power cord adaptors and electric hand vac are stored under Pilothouse Main Electrical

29 12. Heater types and locations HEATING AND COOLING There are two systems for heating. System Heating Cooling Diesel Furnace YES NO Cabin Electric YES NO Reverse Cycle NO NO The Webasto DIESEL FURNACE system, rated at 45,000 Btu, uses little DC power and diesel fuel. It can be used for every heating situation, especially when at anchor. The system has 7 fan heater units, and it will produce warm tap water in the Hot Water tank when the system has been active. The ELECTRIC CABIN HEATERS are AC-powered and are available when the boat is connected to Shore Power or to the Generator. The 4 units provide heating in local zones, Salon, Pilothouse, Hall and Master Stateroom Diesel-Furnace Heating System WARNING Do not to position a rafted boat, dinghy, fender, towels, or body over the exhaust portion of the hull portside. The exhaust is VERY HOT and will cause injury or equipment damage. Turn ON the SYSTEM HEAT on the panel to the left as starting down the hall stairs, around the corner from the refrigerator. ON and OFF switch on the bottom, temp set arm on the top Allow 10 to 15 minutes for the system to reach minimum operating temperature - the fans will turn ON.

Pots and skillets are stowed under the sink and on the port side cabinets, (see photos). Some pans, grate or dish washing drier tray are stowed in the cabinet beneath the oven. Small kitchen appliances and cleanup items are stowed in the port side galley cabinet. For a detailed inventory of all galley equipment, see photos below. CAUTION When underway in rough seas, push-in (secure) all cabinet and drawer LATCHES. Sink Countertop Protect countertops and sinks from damage. Use cutting boards stowed in cabinet beneath the oven. Keep the countertops dry. Avoid splashes. Water will puddle against the teak panel behind the faucet and run around the right of the panel onto the salon carpet Microwave Turn ON the MICROWAVE switch at the Pilothouse AC Panel. The Microwave can be used with shore, generator, or inverter power. The unit can use a large amount of power (up to 15 amps). It may be necessary to turn off other AC devices to avoid tripping the AC Circuit Breaker. Read power consumption on Ammeter 2. The Microwave is connected to the Inverter system, so it will operate when AC power is not available. NOTE During meal preparation, it may be necessary to turn OFF non-essential AC devices when shore power is less than 30- amps, in order to use several galley appliances.

31 13.2 Range and Oven The boat is equipped with a 3-burner Princess Range and Oven. Turn ON the ELECTRIC RANGE switch at the Pilothouse AC panel. The unit uses a large amount of AC power (up to 25 amps). It may be necessary to reduce use of other AC devices to avoid tripping the DC Circuit Breaker. Read power consumption on Ammeter.

41 22. WATER SYSTEMS Fresh Water Two fresh water tanks (forward 110-gal, aft 40- gal) deliver water to faucets, showers, and toilets. Fresh Water Pressure The FRESH WATER PUMP is located in the forward engine room compartment and maintains water pressure automatically. Turn ON the WATER PRESSURE switch on the Pilothouse DC Panel. If the FRESH WATER PUMP runs after all faucets are closed, check the tank monitor on DC panel to determine whether the source tank is empty (see switching tanks below) NOTE A spare water pump is stowed forward of starboard engine. Turn OFF power at DC Panel. Disconnect wires, mounts, and connectors. Wire connectors are rigged to plug together properly. Fresh Water Tanks. Press the WATER TANK rocker switch on the DC Electrical Panel to inspect the level of each tank. When a tank is empty, the FRESH WATER PUMP runs continuously. There are 2 tanks The TANK SELECTOR VALVE is located in the Forward Engine room portside. Rotate the lever to a full tank. To refill the tanks, open the WATER FILL CAPS on the Foredeck. Run stale or rusty water from hose before placing nozzle into the tank opening. Avoid flushing deck debris into the tank opening Water Heater WATER HEATER (Seaward S-1800) capacity is 20-gallons. Heated water is produced by: AC Power Turn ON the WATER HEATER switch on the Pilothouse AC Panel for hot water Diesel Furnace Set the control switch to SYSTEM HEAT Engine Heat Set control unit to ENGINE HEAT while underway - port engine exchanger The heater uses 1500W AC (12.5A); use fewer AC devices if connected to 30A or less power source. CAUTION Turn OFF water heater if water tanks are low to avoid damage to heating elements Cockpit Fresh Water Shower A FRESH WATER SHOWER is located in the Cockpit. The outdoor shower provides hot and cold water. Use to wash mud from equipment, shoes, and clothing. Ensure the faucet valves are turned OFF or water will pour into the engine compartment. NOTE Use forward tank first. The aft tank is small; consider it the reserve. Replenish when forward tank empties. The aft tank is difficult to refill due to poor venting. Fill slowly. Allow air to escape. Fresh Water Dockside Inlet A FRESH WATER INLET for shore-based water is found on the hull transom. Turn OFF the fresh water pressure pump when used. Turn OFF the shore faucet when not used.

42 22.3 Fresh Water Wash-down Hose A FRESH WATER WASHDOWN hose is located in the Bow Storage Locker. DO NOT USE FOR SEA WATER ACHOR WASHDOWN. There is a 2 nd fresh water hose and hose Spigot on the aft starboard side locker Gray Water Sinks Wastewater (also known as gray water) from the galley and salon sinks is gravity-drained overboard Showers Activated individually at each head cabinet wall switch and labeled and need to be turned on to pump out sink and shower water. The galley and bar sink are free draining but not the head sinks or shower. A separate pump in the Aft Head Shower pumps overboard. Turn ON the SHOWER SUMP switch on the Pilothouse DC Panel. Turn ON the SHOWER switch in the Aft Head cabinet to drain the shower Raw Water Raw water depends on the body of water the boat is floating freshwater or saltwater. RAW WATER WASHDOWNS are available at 2 locations. Location Bow Aft Spigot Location Inside Foredeck Locker Inside Aft Port locker Turn ON the WASHDOWN switch at the Pilothouse DC Panel. When not in use, turn OFF the switch to remove load on the pressure pump. On and off valve is located ahead of the gen set, red handle, in line with the hose is open, across the hose is closed. We do not recommend salt water wash down for any purpose Bilge Water Three automatic and three manual bilge pumps, in pairs, are in main engine room (AFT), forward engine room (MID), and passageway (FORWARD). Turn ON manual BILGE pumps at DC Electrical panel and operate from pilothouse or bridge. Automatic pumps are always ON (powered directly by house battery). NOTE If an automatic pump cycles on/off (red light on panels), investigate cause. Turn ON the paired manual pump to remove excess bilge water. Sloshing bilge water may trip float sensors, causing false cycles. This sometimes occurs in the FORWARD pair next to the Aft Stateroom; raise the lowest step in the passageway end next to galley end and inspect the sump.

43 23. Additional Bunk Space Two persons may sleep on the salon sofas, one on starboard side, and one the aft side. To expand the sleeping room, ask about our optional custom filler cushion, (see below). The pilothouse bench may be used as a bunk. Place the seat bridge across the opening to the port pilothouse door. NOTE Pads and air mattresses placed in the deck of salon, pilothouse, or fly bridge, offer other bedding options. Youngsters and teens often welcome the opportunity to spread out. Optional L Salon seating conversion to a Sleeper Blankets and pillows available from Crown Yacht Charter CUSHION MUST BE ATTACHED ON STB. SIDE AND AFT TO HOOKS ON SLAON SEAT AND RATCHET TIGHTENED TO INSURE THAT THE CUSHION IS SECURE AND SAFE FOR SITTING ON OR SLEEPING. DO NOT LET CHILDREN PLAY ON THIS CUSHION. THE LEGS HAVE A BUTTON STOP BUT BE SURE THAT THEY ARE DOWN AND LOCKED AND VERTICAL. Secure using one of the ratchet hooks to the counter and with the vinyl side against the wood doors when stored. There are some sharp edges around the leg bases. There are straps to help lift to move in place after the chairs and tables are move out of the way. This is a two-person job to best set up. Ask for a demonstration in advance of use if you are not sure how to set up and store. The storage for the folding deck chairs and table to be set inside behind the aft port side salon chair is diminished when this is stored. The deck chairs can be stored in front of the bridge ladder on the aft deck and secured with snubbers and the table can be set in from of the life ring and secured with snubbers.

44 24. Tender Launching Keep secured at bow hook to back of bridge seat. Keep secured to davit winch hook with lifting ring and lines slightly relaxed. Insure that the drain plug between the batter and gas tank is removed, lift ring and wiggle left and right while pulling up. Motor should be tilted up when removing the tender from the water. Lines and bumpers should be stored. Launching the Tender. Insert the drain plug, rig bumpers and tie lines.

45 Next, access Davit Remote Harness in back of bridge refer cabinet, where you will also find a battery charger and GFI outlet if for any reason the tender battery needs charging, generator or dockside power required for charger operation. Install harness end into wall socket, only goes in one way! Next, release and remove bow tie line and set aside. One button releases tension on the ratchet, stretch line enough to remove brass hook from the tender bow hook. Reattaching is the reverse where pulling on the ratchet loose end line will tighten and secure the tender. Switch the hand held remote davit control to the IN position and push the button until the tender lifts off the chocks but DO NOT jam the weight against the davit arm, lifting until it is close will allow for enough space for the tender to be moved. It may take TWO persons to rotate the tender and at the same time be pushing out to port which will allow the davit arm to begin to swing out. Utilizing the front rail to push on to turn out or to pull on to retrieve is best and on. Be sure to NOT TRIP on the chocks at your feet. Do not try to push on the davit arm its self as there is not as much leverage at that point and is harder to rotate. DO NOT STEP ON the translucent hatch cover as it is not designed for weight and may be slippery. Keep the gate to that area attached and children away.

46 Once the tender is rotated out parallel to the boat and someone is holding both the bow and stern tie lines of the tender, you can switch the remote davit harness controller to the OUT position and push the button to begin lowering to the water. The second crew member should remain holding the two lines for the entire trip to the water to help keep the tender from swinging into the boat or windows. If there is someone on the back deck, they could take these tie lines at some point and also work to insure the safe transit to or from the water. THE TENDER SHOULD ALWAYS BE POINTED AFT ALONG SIDE THE MAIN BOAT PORT SIDE IN INSURE EASE OF RETRUNING TO STORAGE. Before removing the davit cable, have someone secure the tender bow line tightly to the rear cleat of the boat, then enter the tender and remove the davit cable hook and guide while it is pulled back up by the operator on the bridge. At that time, the davit can be swung in so it is not overhanging the water or interfering with other operations. The hook can be secured to the deck and the cable tightened some. Raise the cable, using the hook s weight to maintain tension on the line. Rotate the davit boom inward. Secure davit boom to the deck tie down; remove slack, but do not strain the cable. Remove Lifting harness and store in tender s bow storage hatch or return to the captain for storage.

47 . There are Weaver Davits attached to the tender that can be used if an operator is comfortable with such or the tender can be simply secured to the swim via tie lines to the cleats provided and with bumpers in place. TAKE YOUR TIME WITH THIS OPERATIONS FOR LAUNCHING AND RETREIVIG SO THAT CREW AND VESSELS ARE ALL SAFE AND HAPPY. IT IS A BIT OF A TASK EVEN FOR THE EXPERIENCED. The DINGHY is a 11 Boston Whaler with a 20hp Suzuki outboard. It has a capacity to carry 4-people. Dinghy, motor, and fuel weigh about 750 pounds approx... Launching, additional info and warnings. CHECK OUT> The DAVIT circuit BREAKER is located in the Salon aft battery switch panel and is normally ON. Plug the DAVIT CONTROL UNIT cord into the DAVIT WINCH CONTROL RECEPTACLE located on the masthead just forward of the davit. The DAVIT WINCH CONTROLLER is a hand-held unit attached to 8- foot cord and plug, and is normally stored on the Pilothouse helm port shelf. WARNING When not in use, disconnect the DAVIT CONTROL UNIT from the receptacle. If the handset becomes wet, it may short-circuit causing the davit to operate uncontrolled. There will be severe strain on the davit, cable, and dinghy and damage may result. NOTE A spare DAVIT WINCH CONTROLLER is located beneath the Pilothouse helm port seat. CAUTION Ensure the aft drain plug below motor is installed before launch. Turn ON the BILGE PUMP switch momentarily before lifting to remove any extra bilge water. If water is not removed, the water will relocate to the bow as the dinghy is lifted, and tilt the dinghy. Release the three deck tie downs. If the deck stanchions are in place, remove and stow them. WARNING Before engaging the control, ensure the davit cable is on the davit roller and will run freely. Because the cable is lightweight, it has a tendency to ride off the roller onto the shaft when cable is slack. If it rides the shaft, there will be severe strain on the cable and risk of breakage! Keep weight on cable when free and check the roller frequently. A plastic guide helps stay the cable. Carefully, nudge the hand switch to the IN position to lift. Slowly clear of the deck and chocks. WARNING Do not make allow the hook to contact the boom there will be tremendous strain. Ensure good footing the boat will list to port. Gently rotate the dinghy and boom to port. When the boom is nearly perpendicular to deck, align the dinghy to the deck, bow pointing aft. Check clearance below, nudge the hand-switch to the OUT position, and guide the dinghy down the side. WARNING Allow no person to ride the dinghy or place body below dinghy while lowering or lifting. Remove the lifting harness from the 3 attachment eyes on the dinghy. For safety, clip the hooks back to the main ring to control swinging hooks.

48 Move the dinghy to the swim step or dock. Use the fenders to avoid damage to rubber. On swim step, use optional Weaver davit removable hooks. Retrieval To retrieve the dinghy, the procedure is reverse of deployment. CAUTION Use the HAND BILGE pump to pump out bilge water. Remove extra gear to reduce weight on the davit. Tilt the motor UPWARD slightly to avoid damage to the rear of the boat deck. Deploy the davit boom. Move the dinghy along the port side, pointing dinghy bow toward the boat stern, and tie loosely to a cleat Clip the lifting harness to the dinghy lifting eyes. Free the dinghy. Retrieve slack on the cable. Ensure harness is not entangled with motor control cables or fuel line. WARNING Before engaging the control, ensure the davit cable is on the davit roller and will run freely. Because the cable is lightweight, it tends to ride off the roller onto the shaft whenever cable slack. If the cable rides the shaft, there will be severe strain on the cable! Keep natural tension on the cable and check the roller frequently. Ensure good footing the boat deck will list sharply to port during lifting. Lift slowly and check the dinghy harness and balance. Carefully raise the line hook within 4-inches from the boom tip. WARNING Do not make contact between hook and boom roller there will be tremendous strain. Allow no person to be assist operation from below the dinghy. Rotate the bow inboard, pointing it cross-wise to the deck. Grab the dinghy rail, and in one steady motion, pull and rotate the dinghy around the davit boom, aligning bow to the forward chock. Guide the hull to the rear chocks, checking clearance and pad alignment. Ensure pads face properly and make solid contact. Lower until the hull rests firmly on the pads. Relieve tension on the cable. Secure the dinghy with the forward bow hook tie and leave the davit winch cable connected to the lifting harness but just slack by a bit so there is no stress on the davit or cable. CAUTION - Ensure the DINGHY KEY SWITCH and each accessory switch are in OFF position to avoid battery discharge. Remove the DAVIT CONTROL unit from the plug and stow in bridge refer cabinet. Do not leave unattended. WARNING After use, disconnect the DAVIT CONTROL UNIT from the receptacle. If the handset becomes wet, it may short-circuit causing the davit to operate uncontrolled, causing severe strain on the davit, cable, and dinghy Tender Equipment.

49 24.2 SAFETY RAILS THERE ARE SAFETY RAILS UNDER THE PORT BIRDGE SEATING THAT CAN BE INSTALLED WHEN THE TENDER IS REMOVED, FOR SAFETY IF IT WILL BE OFF FOR A PROLOINGED PERIOD OR IF CHILDREN WILL BE ON THE BRIDGE, BUT THIS IS NOT A PLAY AREA FOR CHILDREN UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE.

50 24.3 Outboard Run Operations, Pre-Checks Before operating, open the engine cover and check the oil with the motor level. Spare oil is located in the bridge refer cabinet. The fuel tank is Gasoline ONLY. DO NOT add oil to the fuel. CAUTION The most common issue with dinghy operation is water in the fuel. Prevent water from entering the tank during refueling A 12-volt battery charger is stowed in the bridge refer cabinet for battery re- charging. Plug into a 120-volt receptacle (one is located inside bridge refer cabinet). Push down on this lever to release lock down catch to lower motor, push up to lock when down so the motor does not kick up when put in reverse. Attach the gas line as shown below. The red lever is the steering tension lever, tighten as needed. Under the cowling, check the oil under the yellow cap. Release the gas line by pushing the silver lock and run gas out till the engine quits. Pump the gas line bulb until hard. Insert the black open end of the red lanyard under the red button and the other end to your belt as a safety shut off. With the shift lever in neutral, push the black start button on the motor. If the battery is low, charge for at least 8 hours before starting again. This should not be a problem unless you have accidentally left on running lights.

51 Reattach the motor cowling if you have taken off and be sure that it is latched down tight. There is normally no need to remove other than to check upon the first use that the oil level is full. Observe safe docking especially when returning to Salish Spirit and know that neutral is always the safest position when maneuvering any boat. Make short adjustments for control as needed. Enjoy. 25.
