Inverter / main switch

The main power switch (1) for service batteries is located under the navigation table, switch for engine battery (2) is under the bed in the left stern cabin and switch for the bow thruster battery (3) is in the fron right cabin under the bed.

 

By turning them counter-clockwise, all the electricity on board shuts down. This possibility is primarily used in an emergency situation, for example in case of a fire. (slike 1.4 glavna sklopka, 1.4 motor i 1.4 thruster)

 

Inverter switch (4) is located on the control panel. Please make sure that all devices connected to the inverter should be used only as long as necessary, for example until the mobile phone battery is charged, after which it should immediately be disconnected.

 

Keep in mind that the inverter consumes the electricity even if there is no device connected to it, so in order to preserve energy, please switch it off after every use.

After the use leave the small lever in that position in order to avoid the water return.
Make sure both seacocks are open when using the toilet.
After the use please close both of them.

All engines are regularly maintained by our mechanics.
Nevertheless, to be sure it is working properly, check the oil and water levels regularly, as well as inspecting the engine visually.
The procedure of controlling the engine will be elaborated by our skippers during the check-in.

Engine control panel: engine start / stop, gear lever, fuel level indicator, hour meter

Engine control panel: engine start / stop, gear lever, fuel level indicator, hour meter

Starting the engine:


1. Before starting the engine, push the button on the gear lever and the gear lever a bit forward in order to increase RPMs without engaging the propeller.
2. Switch on the electric contact (button on the upper left side of the EVC panel)
3. Hold the start switch with light pressure (upper right on the EVC panel) for about 10 seconds (preheat)
4. Push the start button fully to start the engine


Stopping the engine:


1. Push the stop button (lower right on the EVC panel)
2. Switch off the electric contact

 

Please return the gear lever to the neutral position before shutting down the engine.

Anchor

Anchor and chain compartment + Electric windlass

Anchor and chain compartment + Electric windlass

It is recommended to release the anchor manually, because sometimes during the anchoring maneuver the winch might be too slow considering the speed of the moving boat.


During the maneuver please attach the compartment hatch to the fence using the provided rope with a hook.


Please make sure the anchor doesn't hit the bow during anchoring procedure.


When the anchor is not in use, attach it to the bollard as a safety measure.

 

CAUTION!!!


Just before you start lifting the anchor, engage the forward gear for 2-3 seconds (with minimum gas, just to get a slight push forward in the direction of the anchor). That way you will prevent the windlass to pull the whole boat, which can seriously damage it.


To avoid injury, wear gloves and shoes while operating the windlass.


The chain is marked every 10m with a red mark.

When the dinghy is not in use, please return it to its position on the deck; if you tow it behind the boat, there is a chance of losing it along the way, and that case is not covered by any insurance.

 

Also DO NOT tow the dinghy while the outboard engine is still mounted on it.

 

After each use please return the outboard engine to its place onboard.
