The helm unit under the steering wheel contains the hydraulic fluid that supplies the complete
steering system. Periodic checks of the fluid level should be performed to insure an adequate
Supply is always available to prevent air from entering the system and causing a degradation or
loss of steering.
C-3
The steering system uses hydraulic fluids as outlined in literature for the steering supplied in the
Owner’s packet.
NOTE
The Steering Helm is the hydraulic pump for the system. The direction that the helm is turned
controls check valves in the helm, which in turn determines the direction of flow to the steering
cylinders. When refilling the helm with hydraulic fluid care must be taken to ensure no small
particles of debris enters the system. Debris can affect the operation of the check valves, which
may mean a degradation of or loss of steering capability.
4. BOAT & ENGINE TRIM
TRIM TAB SYSTEM
The Trim Tab System is operated with the switches on the Control Helm. These switches control
the direction and amount the transom mounted trim tabs move.
Power to these switches is supplied from the "TRIM TAB" switch and re-settable circuit breaker
located on the switch panel.
This electric-hydraulically-operated system is used to trim the running attitude of the boat while
under way. If used properly, the trim tabs will aid in trimming the boat in fore and aft and side to
side position, providing a better view for the helmsman and allowing an overall smoother ride and
with increased efficiency.
The operator should be aware that each trim tab does not operate as a unit, but are individually
controlled to allow trimming to correct a listing position while under way.
The double rocker switch located on the helm console actuates the trim tabs. Depressing the top
of the switches lowers the tabs, which causes the bow of the boat to go down while underway.
Depressing the bottom of the switches to the "UP" position allows the bow to rise.

The speed of your boat and conditions of the water will determine the extent of lowering your trim
tabs.
The trim tabs should always be in the "UP" position when dockside and during slow operation
such as docking or slow trolling.
Trim tab position in a following sea must be up. If the trim tabs are down excessively, it can affect
handling characteristics and decrease steering ability and response.

ENGINE INSTRUMENTATION
1. THE IMPORTANCE OF ENGINE INSTRUMENTATION
To avoid the possibility of mechanical damage to your Engine basic instrumentation for each
Engine is provided on your Intrepid. Unless specified at the time an Intrepid was ordered from the
factory, your boat will be fitted with instrumentation provided by the Engine Manufacturer.
The operator of this boat should become accustomed to checking the instrumentation frequently
when running and particularly when first starting the Engine.
Engine instrumentation gives indications as to what is happening to the engines while they are
being operated. It is important that you become familiar with the appropriate reading for each
instrument. This information is provided by the Engine Manufacturer and is located in your
Owner’s Packet.
Power is provided to an engine’s instrumentation by that engine’s electrical system. The engine’s
Ignition Switch must be on for the instruments to operate.
2. BASIC ENGINE INSTRUMENTATION
TACHOMETER
This instrument provides a reading of Revolutions Per Minute (RPM) of the engine. There is no
set correlation of RPM’s to the speed of the boat. Speeds at various RPM’s should be determined
by using a Speedometer or an electronic device.
VOLTMETER
This instrument monitor’s the amount of charge available in the engine battery. A low voltage
reading when the engine is not running indicates that the battery is not at full charge. A voltage
indication of 13 to 15 volts when the engine is running indicates that the battery is charging.
FUEL GAUGE
The electric fuel gauge indicates the amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank in terms of
percentage of tank capacity.
The fuel gauge provides a convenient but approximate indication of remaining fuel. Safe
operation of this boat requires filling the fuel tank after each use and becoming familiar with fuel
usage under various conditions.
NOTE
If your Intrepid is equipped with an auxiliary Fuel Tank but has only one Fuel Gauge, your boat
has been fitted with a Main Tank / Auxiliary Tank Selector switch located on your console.
Selecting MAIN will provide a fuel level reading for the Main Tank and an AUX selection will
provide a fuel level reading on the Auxiliary Tank.
NOTE
The fuel senders mounted into the tanks are located under access plates in the cockpit deck.
These senders control the electric gauge on the helm and incorporate a mechanical indication of
Fuel Level on top of each sender.
TRIM GAUGE
The trim gauge provides an indication of the amount an engine is trimmed up or down. Monitoring
this gauge will provide you with the ability to set the amount of engine trim for optimum
performance.
C-7
Hour Meter (Optional)
This meter registers the amount of time in hours that the engine’s ignition system has been on. It
is activated when the Ignition Switch is turned ON. If the hour meter is to be replaced, note the
hours on the old Hour Meter. This figure must be added to the hours shown on the new Hour
Meter to determine the amount of total hours an engine has run.
3. ENGINE MANUFACTURER SUPPLIED INSTRUMENTATION
Unless specifically requested at the time a boat was ordered Intrepid has installed
instrumentation that is provided by the Engine Manufacturer.
Information on the use of Engine Manufacturer Instrumentation and the range of normal operating
indications is found in the Engine Owners Manual. This manual is located in your Owner’s Pack.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CONTROL
DC Electrical power is supplied to the Engine electrical system and the boat’s accessories by the
batteries. This power is controlled by Battery Disconnect Switches. The Batteries and Battery
Switches are located @ or under the Helm.
Proper use of the Battery Switches will help lengthen battery life and help provide optimum
charge of the batteries.
If your boat is equipped with optional accessories (Bow Thruster, or Generator, for example)
there will be additional switches on your boat. Specifics on the use of these switches can be
found in the section of this Owner’s Manual that pertains to that accessory.
The battery disconnect switches are located on the side of the helm console.
