Pre-operation checks
131
Battery check
Make sure that the battery terminals are not
damaged and that the battery leads are con-
nected properly. (See pages 160 and 161 for
battery cover removal and installation proce-
dures.) WARNING! The battery must al-
ways be fully charged and in good
condition. Loss of battery power may
leave you stranded. Never operate the
boat if the battery does not have sufficient
power to start the engines or if it shows
any other signs of decreased power.

Bilge water check
Make sure that no bilge water has collected in
the engine compartment and the fuel tank
compartment. If bilge water has collected in
the engine compartment and the fuel tank
compartment, drain it. (See page 120 for in-
formation on draining the bilge water.)
Drain plug check
Loosen the drain plugs and remove them, and
then make sure that the plugs and the O-ring
on the hull drain plug are not damaged and
that there is no foreign material on the threads
or the O-ring on the hull drain plug. NOTICE:
Before installing the drain plugs, clean the
drain plug threads and the O-ring on the
hull drain plug to remove any foreign ma-
terials, such as dirt or sand. Otherwise, the
drain plugs could be damaged, allowing
water to enter the engine compartment or
the fuel tank compartment. Make sure that
the drain plugs are tightened securely be-
fore launching the boat. Otherwise, water
may flood the boat and cause it to sub-
merge.
Securely install the drain plugs by tightening
them until they stop.
