IMPORTANT MANUAL INFORMATION
In this manual, information of particular importance is
distinguished in the following ways:
The Safety Alert Symbol means
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT!
YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
BOATING SAFETY
WARNING
Failure to follow WARNING instructions could
result in severe injury or death to the boat
operator or passengers, a bystander, or a
person inspecting or repairing the boat.
CAUTION
A CAUTION indicates special precautions that
must be taken to avoid damage to the boat.
NOTE: A NOTE provides key information to make
procedures easier or clearer.
1-1
SAFETY INFORMATION
The safe use and operation of this boat is dependent
upon the use of proper operating techniques, as well
as upon the common sense, good judgment, and
expertise of the operator. Every operator should know
the following requirements before operating the boat.
• Before operating the boat, read this Skeeter
Owner’s/Operator’s Manual, the Owner’s/
Operator’s Manual for the outboard motor, the
literature for all other equipment supplied with your
boat or trailer, and all warning and caution labels
on the boat, motor, and trailer. These materials
should give you an understanding of the boat and
its operation.
• Never allow anyone to operate this boat until they
too have read the Owner’s/Operator’s Manual and
all warning and caution labels.
LIMITATIONS ON WHO MAY OPERATE
THE BOAT
• Skeeter recommends a minimum operator age of
16 years old.
• Adults must supervise use by minors.
• Know the operator age and training requirements
for your state. A boating safety course is
recommended and may be required in your state.
You can find local rules by contacting the United
States Coast Guard (USCG), the National
Association of State Boating Law Administrators, or
your local Power Squadron.
• This Skeeter boat has maximum capacities for
number of passengers and weight on board. Never
exceed these maximum load limits. Weight
distribution affects performance. Keep weight in the
boat low and evenly distributed from side-to-side
and front-to-back. Remove any unnecessary cargo
and store it on shore.
1-2
Overpowering / Overloading
DO NOT overpower or overload your boat. Your boat
is equipped with a required capacity plate indicating
the maximum acceptable power and load as
determined by the manufacturer following certain
Federal guidelines. In doubt, contact your Skeeter
Dealer.
BOATING SAFETY
Typical Capacity Plate
Figure 1-1
1-3
Using an outboard motor that exceeds the maximum
horsepower limit of a boat can:
• Cause loss of boat control.
• Place too much weight at the transom, altering the
design flotation characteristics of the boat.
• Cause structural damage.
Overpowering a boat can result in serious injury,
death, or boat damage.
WARNING
DO NOT overpower or overload your boat.
BOAT SETUP
Your Skeeter boat is shipped from Skeeter with almost
all the necessities to operate your boat. Not all boats
will be equipped as others, since you have the option
on how to accessorize and equip your boat.
The installation of your outboard motor is already done
by Skeeter. The installation height may have to be
adjusted to optimize and maximize its performance.
(The installation height is the distance from the bottom
of the cavitation plate to the top of the straight edge.)
The installation height should never be adjusted by
someone who is not qualified to establish the correct
installation height. The installed height is based on an
average, since Skeeter cannot predetermine your
boat’s loads or uses. The addition of add-ons or
accessories which can inhibit performance and safety
should never be added as a means of trying to
increase performance. If you believe you are
experiencing poor performance, contact your Skeeter
Dealer.
1-4
BOATING SAFETY
A jack plate is sometimes used on boats to adjust
engine installation height. Do not use a jack plate on
your Skeeter boat unless it is specifically designed for
one, and then only use the Skeeter-recommended
jack plate. Other jack plate installations are considered
misuse and are not covered by warranty.
For jack plate operation, see the operation manual that
came with your boat.
WARNING
Do not attempt to alter your Skeeter boat to
increase performance. Modifications could
make your boat unsafe to use, increasing the
risk of severe injury or death.
Engine Stop Switch and Cord Lanyard
Your Skeeter boat is equipped with an engine stop
switch and cord lanyard. Skeeter strongly recommends
that the cord lanyard be secured to the operator and
the lock plate attached to the engine stop switch prior
to starting the engine and anytime the engine is
operating.
This device is designed to turn off the engine
whenever the operator moves far enough away from
the helm to activate the switch. It is strongly
recommended that the operator use the cord lanyard.
1-5
WARNING
• Attach the engine stop switch cord lanyard
to a secure place on your clothing, arm, or
leg while operating.
• Avoid accidentally pulling the cord lanyard
during normal operation. Loss of engine
power means loss of most steering control.
Also, without engine power, the boat could
slow rapidly. This could cause people and
objects in the boat to be thrown forward.
• DO NOT attach the cord lanyard to clothing
that could tear loose. DO NOT route the cord
lanyard where it could become entangled,
preventing it from functioning.
DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION
The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) has regulations which
describe minimum standards of safety. All Skeeter
boats have been certified by the National Marine
Manufacturers Association (NMMA) to meet or exceed
all USCG requirements and American Boat & Yacht
Council (ABYC) standards such as:
• Flotation
• Capacity
• Fuel System
• Ventilation
• Wiring
• Sound signaling device and navigation lights
1-6
BOATING SAFETY
REQUIRED EQUIPMENT
The following USCG safety equipment must be
provided by the owner and carried onboard.
• Life Jackets: One wearable life jacket for each
person on board. Life jackets must be USCGapproved and in good and serviceable condition
(see OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS on page
1-8 for more information).
• Throwable Device: At least one USCG-approved
throwable flotation device (Type IV).
• Fire Extinguisher: At least one Marine Type
USCG hand-held, portable fire extinguisher
(Type B-I or B-II).
• Visual Distress Signals: It is recommended that a
USCG-approved pyrotechnic device be stored on
your boat. A mirror or distress flag can also be
used as an emergency signal.
Your Skeeter Dealer will be happy to assist you with
these requirements.
ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT
RECOMMENDATIONS
The following equipment can help make your boating
experience safer and more enjoyable:
• Cell phone and charger
• Mooring fenders and lines for docking
• Anchor with suitable line (a “Danforth” type anchor
and line that is at least 6 times the depth of the water
where you will drop anchor are recommended)
• Manual-type bilge pump
• First aid kit
• Waterproof flashlight with extra batteries
• Tool kit with assorted screwdrivers, pliers, wrenches
(including metric sizes), and electrical tape
• Oar or paddle (look for one with a boat hook on
the other end)
• Spare parts, such as an extra set of spark plugs
and fuses
• Navigation charts or mobile app for the waters
where you will be boating
• Towrope
• Portable GPS or marine navigation app
1-7
OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS
• The operator and all passengers should wear a
USCG-approved life jacket. USCG regulations
require that the proper number and type of life
jackets be aboard the boat for each adult
passenger and worn by each child under 13 years
old. However, some foreseeable accidents could
happen so quickly on any boat that there would not
be time to put on a life jacket. Therefore, Skeeter
recommends life jacket use at all times while the
boat is in operation.
• Eye protection is recommended to keep wind,
water, and glare from the sun out of your eyes
while you operate your Skeeter boat. Restraining
straps for eyewear are made which are designed
to float should your eyewear fall into the water.
• Footwear and gloves are recommended.
• NEVER operate the boat after consuming alcohol
or taking drugs.
• For reasons of safety and proper care of your
Skeeter boat, always perform the pre-operation
checks listed on page 1-13 before operating.
• Passengers must always sit in a designated
seating area, place feet on the deck, and hold on
to the hand grips when the boat is in motion.
• Always consult your doctor on whether it is safe for
you to ride in this boat if you are pregnant or in
poor health.
• Do not attempt to modify this Skeeter boat!
Modifications to your boat may reduce safety
and reliability, and render the boat unsafe or
illegal to use.
• Attach the engine stop cord (lanyard) to the
operator’s life jacket and keep it free from steering
wheel or other controls so that the engine stops if
the operator accidentally leaves the helm. Failure
to attach the engine stop cord could result in a
runaway boat if the operator is ejected.
• After operation, remove the engine stop cord and
the keys to avoid accidental starting or
unauthorized use by children or others.
1-8
BOATING SAFETY
CRUISING LIMITATIONS
• Scan constantly for people, objects, and other
watercraft. Be alert for conditions that limit your
visibility or block your vision of others.
• Operate defensively at safe speeds and keep a
safe distance from people, objects, and other
watercraft.
• Do not follow directly behind other boats.
• Do not go near others to spray or splash them with
water.
• Avoid sharp turns or other maneuvers that make it
hard for others to avoid you or understand where
you are going.
• Avoid areas with submerged objects or shallow
water.
• Operate within your limits and avoid aggressive
maneuvers to reduce the risk of loss of control,
ejection, and collision.
• This is a high-performance boat – not a toy. Sharp
turns or jumping waves or wakes can increase the
risk of back/spinal injury (paralysis), facial injuries,
and broken legs, ankles, and other bones. Do not
jump waves or wakes.
• Do not operate the boat in rough water, bad
weather, or when visibility is poor; this may lead to
an accident causing injury or death. Be alert to the
possibility of bad weather. Take note of weather
forecasts and the prevailing weather conditions
before setting out in your boat.
• Leave a “float plan” with a responsible person on
shore. Tell where you plan to go and when you
plan to arrive, and provide a description of your
boat. Advise this person if your plans change and
also when you arrive to prevent false alarms. A
sample float plan is included in this manual.
1-9
HAZARD INFORMATION
• Never start the engine or let it run for any length of
time in an enclosed area. Exhaust fumes contain
carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that
may cause death within a short time. Always
operate the boat in an open area.
• Do not use the reverse function to slow down or
stop the boat as it could cause you to lose control,
be ejected, or impact the steering wheel or other
parts of the boat. This could increase the risk of
serious injury. It could also damage the shift
mechanism.
• Reverse can be used to slow down or stop during
slow-speed maneuvering, such as when docking.
Once the engine is idling, shift to reverse and
gradually increase engine speed. Make sure that
there are no obstacles or people behind you
before shifting into reverse.
• Stop the engine and remove the clip from the
engine stop switch before removing any debris or
weeds which may have collected around the
propeller.
NIGHT OPERATION
When using your boat before dawn or after dusk, you
must have both bow and stern lights operating. When
at anchor in the dark, the stern light must be lit. See
Section 6 for more information.
1-10
BOATING SAFETY
WATER-SKIING
• Some Skeeter boats are equipped to tow a waterskier, using the tow cleat or ski pylon provided.
• It is the boat operator’s responsibility to be alert to
the safety of the water-skier and others. Know and
follow all state and local water-skiing regulations in
effect for the waters in which you will be operating.
• The following are some important considerations
for minimizing risks while water-skiing.
• The skier should wear an approved PFD,
preferably a brightly colored one so boat operators
can see the skier.
• The skier should wear protective clothing. Severe
internal injuries can occur if water is forced into
body cavities as a result of falling into the water or
while reboarding. The skier should wear a wetsuit
bottom or clothing that provides equivalent
protection. Such clothing includes thick, tightly
woven, sturdy, and snug-fitting apparel such as
denim, but does not include spandex or similar
fabrics like those used in bicycle shorts.
• A second person should be on board in a rearfacing seat as a spotter to watch the skier; in most
states it is required by law. Let the skier direct the
operator’s control of speed and direction with hand
signals.
• When preparing to pull a skier, operate the boat at
the slowest possible speed until the boat is well
away from the skier and slack in the towrope is
taken up. Make sure that the rope is not looped
around anything.
• After checking that the skier is ready and that there
is no traffic or other obstacles, apply enough
throttle to raise the skier.
• Make smooth, wide turns. The boat is capable of
very sharp turns, which could exceed the abilities
of the skier. Keep the skier at least 50 meters (150
feet), about twice the distance of a standard
towrope, away from any potential hazard.
• Be alert to the hazard of the towrope handle
snapping back at the boat when the skier falls or is
unable to get up on the skis.

BOATING SAFETY
ACCIDENT REPORTING
Boat operators are required by law to file a Boating
Accident Report with their state boating law
enforcement agency if their boat is involved in any of
the following accidents:
1. There is loss of life or probable loss of life.
2. There is personal injury which requires medical
attention beyond first aid.
3. There is damage to boats or other property which
exceeds $500.00.
4. There is complete loss of a boat.
Contact local law enforcement personnel if a report is
necessary.
PRE-OPERATION CHECKS
CHECKLIST
Before operating this boat, perform the following
checks:
If any item in the Pre-Operation Check is not working
properly, have it inspected and repaired before
operating your boat. Otherwise an accident could
occur.
NOTE: Pre-operation checks should be made each
time the boat is used. This procedure can
be accomplished thoroughly in a short
time. The added safety and reliability the
checks assure is worth the time involved.
1-13
CHECK POINTS
Throttle and Shifting
Perform the following in addition to the pre-operation
check points provided in your outboard motor
owner’s manual.
Steering
Make sure the wheel is not loose. There should not
be any free play, either in-and-out or in rotation. Turn
the steering wheel full-right and full-left to make sure
operation is smooth and unrestricted throughout the
whole range.
Keep the steering cable end clear of obstructions
such as wiring, control cables, fuel lines, tow lines,
and mooring lines.
Keep moving parts clean and lubricated.
Inspect the steering cable for kinks, damage, or
corrosion.
Operate the throttle lever several times to make sure
there is no hesitation in its travel. Operation should be
smooth over the complete range of motion. See your
outboard owner’s manual for more information.
Fire Extinguisher
Make sure the fire extinguisher is aboard, full, and in
serviceable condition. See the instructions supplied
by the fire extinguisher manufacturer to determine
proper indication of condition.
WARNING
Always carry a fire extinguisher on board.
Hull
Before launching, check the hull of your boat for
cracks or damage.
1-14
BOATING SAFETY
Drainage System
Self-Bailing Deck: Most water which enters the deck
area bails automatically out the stern through the
large drain hole in the deck. A one-way check valve
in the drain prevents water from traveling back to the
deck during mooring or while moving in reverse.
Bilge Pump: Your Skeeter boat is equipped with a
drainage system that channels water entering the
boat from the storage compartments to the bilge
under the engine compartment. When the pump is
on, most of the water in the bilge will drain through
the outlet. For manual bilge pump systems, the pump
will operate when the bilge pump switch is turned on.
If your boat is equipped with an automatic bilge
pump, the pump will sense when there is excessive
water in the bilge and will automatically turn on.
On boats equipped with an automatic bilge system,
the bilge switch can be used to override the
automatic system and to test the bilge pump. When
the switch is activated, listen to hear if the pump is
operating. It may not pump water unless water is
present. Do not operate the bilge pump continuously
when it is dry.
Inspect the bilge area frequently for evidence of
excessive water. Continuous operation of the bilge
pump can indicate excessive water entering the
bilge. Debris can also prevent the pump from
operating or make it operate continuously. Test the
bilge pump at regular intervals. Make sure no debris
is blocking the bilge pump float.
Drain Plug: A drain plug is located at the center of
the stern to allow more complete draining when the
boat is removed from the water.
1-15
Lights
Check for proper operation of the bow, stern, and
instrument lights by pressing the switch on the
control panel. If the stern light is not installed, remove
it from the storage area, lift the socket cover, and
install it into the socket to check operation.
Horn
Press the horn switch to be sure the horn operates.
Fuel and Oil
Follow your outboard motor owner’s manual for
information about the proper fuel and oil for your motor.
Engine Stop Switch
First, place the boat in the water to provide adequate
engine cooling. Start the engine, and then remove
the engine stop switch clip, and verify that the engine
stops. See your outboard motor owner’s manual for
more information.
ENJOY YOUR SKEETER BOAT
RESPONSIBLY
You share the areas you enjoy when operating your
boat with others and with nature. So your enjoyment
includes a responsibility to treat these other people,
and the lands, waters, and wildlife with respect and
courtesy. Whenever and wherever you are boating,
think of yourself as the guest of those around you.
Remember, for example, that the sound of your boat
may be music to you, but it could be just noise to
others. And the exciting splash of your wake can make
waves others won’t enjoy. Avoid riding close to
shoreline homes and waterfowl nesting areas or other
wildlife areas, and keep a respectful distance from
fishermen, other boats, swimmers, and populated
beaches. When travel in areas like these is
unavoidable, operate slowly. Remember that pollution
can be harmful to the environment. Do not refuel or
add oil where a spill could cause damage to nature.
And keep your surroundings pleasant for the people
and wildlife that share the waterways: don’t litter!
1-16
BOATING SAFETY
When you go boating responsibly, with respect and
courtesy for others, you help ensure that our
waterways stay open for the enjoyment of a variety of
recreational opportunities.
Foreign Species
If you trailer your boat from lake to lake, you may
unknowingly introduce a foreign aquatic species from
one lake to the next. Thoroughly clean the boat below
the water line, remove all weeds and algae, and drain
the bilge before launching the boat in a new body of
water.
Fuel / Oil Spillage
WARNING
Fumes from rags can collect in the bilge and be
extremely hazardous. Do not store rags used to
wipe up fuel or solvent spills in the boat.
Dispose of rags properly ashore.
The spilling of fuel or oil into our waterways
contaminates the environment and is dangerous to
wildlife. Do not discharge or dispose of fuel, oil, or
other chemicals into the water; it is prohibited and you
can be fined. These are two common, accidental types
of discharge:
• Overfilling the fuel tanks
• Pumping contaminated bilge water
1-17
Discharge / Disposal of Waste
Waste means all forms of garbage, plastics,
recyclables, food, wood, detergents, sewage, and
even fish parts in certain waters – in short, nearly
everything. We recommend you bring back everything
you take out with you for proper disposal ashore.
Wake / Wash
WARNING
You are responsible for injury and damage
caused by your wake/wash.
Use an approved pump-out facility at your marina.
Many areas prohibit the discharge of sewage
overboard or even an operable overboard waste
discharge.
Excessive Noise
Noise means engine noise, radio noise, or even
voices. Many bodies of water have adopted noise
limits. Music and loud conversation can carry a
considerable distance on water, especially at night.
Be sure to follow regulations and be courteous.
Be alert for NO WAKE zones. Prior to entering a no
wake zone, come off plane to the slowest steerable
speed. Use caution when operating around smaller
crafts, in channels and marinas, and in congested
areas.

BASIC RULES OF THE ROAD
RULES OF THE ROAD
Operation of your boat must be in accordance with the
rules and regulations governing the waterway on
which it is used. Just as there are rules that apply
when you are driving on streets and highways, there
are waterway rules that apply when you are operating
your boat. These rules are used internationally, and
are also enforced by the United States Coast Guard
and local agencies. You should be aware of these
rules, and follow them whenever you encounter
another vessel on the water.
Several sets of rules prevail according to geographic
location, but are all basically the same as the
International Rules of the Road. The rules presented
here in this Owner’s/Operator’s Manual are
condensed, and have been provided for your
convenience only. Consult your local U.S. Coast
Guard Auxiliary or Department of Motor Vehicles for a
complete set of rules governing the waters in which
you will be operating your boat.
Steering and Sailing Rules
Whenever two vessels on the water meet one another,
one vessel has the right-of-way; it is called the “standon” vessel. The vessel that does not have the right-ofway is called the “give-way” or “burdened” vessel.
These rules determine which vessel has the right-ofway, and what each vessel should do.
Stand-On Vessel
The vessel with the right-of-way has the duty to
continue its course and speed, except to avoid an
immediate collision. When you maintain your direction
and speed, the other vessel will be able to determine
how best to avoid you.
2-1
Give-Way Vessel
The vessel which does not have the right-of-way has
the duty to take positive and timely action to stay out
of the way of the stand-on vessel. Normally, you
should not cross in front of the vessel with the right-ofway. You should slow down or change directions
briefly and pass behind the other vessel. You should
always move in such a way that the operator of the
other vessel can see what you are doing.
The General Prudential Rule regarding the right-ofway is that if a collision appears unavoidable, neither
boat has the right-of-way. Both boats must avoid the
collision. In other words, follow the standard rules
except when a collision will occur unless both vessels
try to avoid each other. If that is the case, both vessels
become give-way vessels.
RULES WHEN ENCOUNTERING
VESSELS
There are three main situations that you may
encounter with other vessels which could lead to a
collision unless the Steering Rules are followed:
• Meeting: you are approaching another vessel
head-on
• Crossing: you are traveling across another vessel’s
path
• Overtaking: you are passing or being passed by
another vessel
2-2
BASIC RULES OF THE ROAD
Meeting
If you are meeting another power vessel head-on, and
are close enough to run the risk of collision, neither of
you has the right-of-way! Both of you should alter
course to avoid an accident. You should keep the
other vessel on your port (left) side. This rule does not
apply if both of you will clear one another if you
continue on your set course and speed.

In crossing situations, the boat to the right from the
12 o’clock to the 4 o’clock position has the right-of-way
and must hold course and speed. The boat without
right-of-way must yield and pass to the stern of the
privileged boat. Boats going up and down a river have
the right-of-way over boats crossing the river.
Figure 2-2
2-4
BASIC RULES OF THE ROAD
Overtaking
If you are passing another vessel, you are the giveway vessel. This means that the other vessel is
expected to maintain its course and speed. You must
stay out of its way until you are clear of it. Likewise, if
another vessel is passing you, you should maintain
your speed and direction so that the other vessel can
steer itself around you.

Other Special Situations
There are three other rules you should be aware of
when operating your boat around other vessels.
Narrow Channels and Bends
When navigating in narrow channels, you should keep
to the right when it is safe and practical to do so. If the
operator of a power-driven vessel is preparing to go
around a bend that may obstruct the view of other
water vessels, the operator should sound a prolonged
blast of 4-6 seconds on the horn. If another vessel is
around the bend, it too should sound the horn. Even if
no reply is heard, however, the vessel should still
proceed around the bend with caution.
Fishing Vessel Right-of-Way
All vessels fishing with nets, lines, or trawls are
considered to be “fishing vessels” under the
International Rules. Vessels with trolling lines are not
considered fishing vessels. Fishing vessels have the
right-of-way regardless of position. Fishing vessels
cannot, however, impede the passage of other vessels
in narrow channels.
Sailing Vessel Right-of-Way
Sailing vessels should normally be given the right-ofway. The exceptions to this are:
1. When the sailing vessel is overtaking the powerdriven vessel, the power-driven vessel has the
right-of-way.
2. Sailing vessels should keep clear of any fishing
vessel.
3. In a narrow channel, a sailing vessel should not
hamper the safe passage of a power-driven vessel
that can navigate only in such a channel.
2-6
BASIC RULES OF THE ROAD
Reading Buoys and Other Markers
The waters of the United States are marked for safe
navigation by the lateral system of buoyage. Simply
put, buoys and markers have an arrangement of
shapes, colors, numbers, and lights to show which
side of the buoy a boater should pass on when
navigating in a particular direction. The markings on
these buoys are oriented from the perspective of being
entered from seaward (the boater is going toward the
harbor). Red buoys are passed on your starboard
(right) side when proceeding from open water into port,
and black buoys are to your port (left) side. An easy
way to remember the meaning of the colors is the
phrase “red right returning.” When navigating out of
the harbor, your position with respect to the buoys
should be reversed; red buoys should be to port and
black buoys to starboard.
Many bodies of water used by boaters are entirely
within the boundaries of a particular state. The Uniform
State Waterway Marking System has been devised for
these waters. This system uses buoys and signs with
distinctive shapes and colors to show regulatory or
advisory information. These markers are white with
black letters and orange borders. They signify speed
zones, restricted areas, danger areas, and general
information.
Remember, markings may vary by geographic
location. Always consult local boating authorities
before riding your boat in unfamiliar waters.
2-7
REGULATED / LIMITED ACCESS
AREAS
The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) has regulations to
prevent terrorist attacks on U.S. naval vessels, cruise
ships, commercial vessels, and critical infrastructure
near the water such as:
• Nuclear power plants
• Petroleum facilities
• Bridges
• Dams
• Shipping channels
As a boater, not knowing how to act in certain areas or
situations may put you in legal jeopardy, or worse, at
risk of personal injury. You can be fined, imprisoned, or
fired upon if you are perceived as a security risk. It is
best to avoid these areas if possible.

See the manufacturer’s literature for operating
instructions.
Livewell Systems
Your Skeeter boat is equipped with a livewell system
that is designed to keep your fish alive and healthy.
See LIVEWELL OPERATION – 3-WAY VALVE
SYSTEM on page 3-29 for more information.
Make sure all accessories and outboards are in the
OFF position when connecting to the power source
and charging the batteries.
WARNING
Do not charge your batteries in the boat unless
your boat is equipped with an onboard charging
system.
After each use, rinse the livewell and baitwell (if
equipped) with clean fresh water, remove any debris
from the pick-up and drain screens, and allow the
livewell to air-dry after each use. The pick-up screens
are located at the bottom of the transom and the drain
screens are located in the livewell or baitwell.

AUTO – On plane: While on plane with the actuator in
the “AUTO” position and the pump on, the control
valve located in the bilge automatically closes to
prevent water loss. The water pump is automatically
diverted to closed recirculation. When the boat is off
plane, the control valve automatically opens to allow
fresh water to the livewell. Any water lost through the
overflow is automatically replaced when the water
pump switch is in the “MANUAL” or “AUTO” position.

Before filling the livewell, make sure of the following:
• Transom strainer(s) are clean and secured to the
water inlet on the transom.
• The boat is in the water, at rest position with
unrestricted water flow to the water inlet on the
transom.
NOTE: The livewell cannot be filled while the boat
is running.
To fill the livewell:
1. Close the actuator to the livewell. The actuator
opens and closes the livewell drain valve.
2. Open the fill valve inside the livewell. The fill valve
is located on the fill nozzle at the top of the inside
of the livewell.

3. Turn on the fill control switch at the helm.
4. Adjust the fill valve inside the livewell for desired
water flow.
Troubleshooting the Livewell Fill System
Livewell Does Not Fill
If livewell will not fill and the pump is operating:
• Check the transom drains to determine that they
are free of debris.
• Check the “valve” inside the livewell to ensure that
it is in the OPEN position.
• Check for airlock, using the main engine; reverse
the boat to force water into the transom inlet and
pump. This will help determine if the pump is “air
locked.” If the pump was “air locked,” water should
now begin to flow into the livewell. If the pump
remains “air locked,” check fill hose routing for
kinks or excessive loops.

• With the boat on the trailer, remove pump cartridge
and inspect pump housing.
• Check battery.
• Check pump fuse.
• Check for the presence of voltage at the pump. If
voltage is 12 volts or above, replace the pump.
Livewell Overflows
If water is overflowing into the bilge from the livewell,
adjust the fill valve in the livewell so that the intake of
water is reduced.

During livewell pump-out operation, water will be
discharged through the pump-out rear deck fitting.
Manual Drain
To completely drain the water from the livewell using
the gravity drain while the boat is “ON” or “OFF
PLANE” or while on the boat is on the trailer:
1. Open the livewell actuator valve.
2. Position the RECIRC button on the helm to OFF.
3. Ensure the FILL button on the helm is OFF.
NOTE: When off plane at a rest position in the
water, the livewell will only drain to a level
that is equal to the water surrounding the
boat.
Troubleshooting the Livewell Drain System
If the livewell will not drain, verify the following:
• The actuator is in the OPEN position.
• The livewell drain screen is not clogged.
If the livewell will not pump out, verify the following:
• The “pump-out valve” in the livewell is pulled OUT.
• The RECIRC button on the helm is ON and the
RECIRC pump is ON.
NOTE: To determine if the pump is operating, place
your hand on the pump. A slight vibration
will be felt if the pump is operating.
• Remove pump cartridge and inspect pump housing.
• Check battery.
• Check pump fuse.
