DO NOT SUPPLY CURRENT TO AN EMPTY WATER HEATER. DAMAGE TO THE HEATER

WILL RESULT. THE SYSTEM MUST BE FILLED AND PRIMED BEFORE USING THE

WATER HEATER.

SHORE WATER CONNECTION

The shore water connection allows the direct connection of the water system to a shoreside water supply. This

provides the system with a constant supply of fresh water and minimizes the pressure pump operation. A

female inlet fitting is mounted in the splashwell.

To use shore water, connect a hose from the shore water faucet to the shore water fitting on the boat. Next,

turn on the shore water. The pressure pump will not run and the water in the boat’s water tank will not be

used. The water tank will not be filled by connecting to shore water.

DO NOT MODIFY OR CHANGE THE SHORE WATER INLET CONNECTOR WITH AN-

OTHER TYPE WITHOUT CONSULTING PURSUIT CUSTOMER RELATIONS OR YOUR

DEALER. THE USE OF THE WRONG TYPE OF INLET CONNECTOR CAN DAMAGE THE

FRESH WATER SYSTEM.

SHOWER OPERATION

The head sink faucet is also the shower spray head. To use as a shower, make sure the “Fresh Water System”

switch on the cabin switch panel is on, then lift the spray head off the sink or out of the locker (cockpit shower)

and turn the water on. Adjust the hot and cold water faucet until the desired temperature is obtained. Some

minor variations in the water temperature may occur as the pressure pump cycles.

Shower water is drained from the head compartment by a sump pump system connected to the shower drain.

An automatic float switch in the shower sump controls the pump. The pump is protected by the shower sump

circuit breaker. After showering, let the cold water flow for a period of time to flush the drainage system of

soap residue.

5.2 Raw Water Washdown

GENERAL

In the raw or sea water systems, all water pumps are supplied by hoses connected to ball valves and thru-hull

fittings located in the bilge. Always make sure the ball valves are open before attempting to operate any

component of the raw water system.

OPERATION

A high pressure pump, controlled by a pressure sensor, supplies the raw water hose connector located in the

cockpit. The pump is activated by the washdown breaker on the cabin DC breaker panel. The breaker should

be kept off when the washdown is not in use.

When activated, the pressure switch will automatically control the pump. As the pressure builds in the

washdown hose, the pump will shut off. When the washdown hose is in use and the pressure drops, the pump

will turn on.
