Bilge Pump
The bilge switch turns on the bilge pump to remove excess water
from the bottom of the boat. The pump turns on or off by pressing
and releasing the button. There is a bilge pump near the rudder
and one in the front. When you turn the switch on, the pump(s)
will operate and run for several moments to “sense” if there is water
in the bilge. If there is water in the bilge, the pump(s) remains on
until the water is pumped out. If there is no water in the bilge, the
pump(s) will turn off. If you want immediate pump action, turn the
switch off and then back on again. The pump(s) will turn on
periodically to determine if there is water in the bilge. If so, they will
remain on until the water is pumped out.
The bilge switch must be turned on for this feature to operate. This
will not drain significant power from the battery unless the bilge
pump(s) is required to run frequently because of a leak or excessive
rainwater. This pumping system should not be relied on over an
extended period of time. Frequently inspect your boat for evidence
of excessive water in the bilge area. Consult your Correct Craft
dealer if you have any questions.
NOTICE
Trash in bilge area can damage the bilge pumps.
Horn
The horn button is a momentary switch. The horn will operate
whenever the button is pressed and will stop when the button is
released.
