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 shore side 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 cockpit.

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 MDP panel is on, then lift the spray head off the sink (or out of the locker for the 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.

The shower sump system is located in the bilge below the mid-berth in the cabin. It is essential that the shower

drain strainer is cleaned regularly and the sump is inspected periodically for accumulated debris that needs

to be removed.

5.2 Raw Water Washdown

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 switch located under the gunwale on the side of the cockpit

on the port side. This switch should be turned to the “ON” position just before using the washdown and be
