Navigation Lights
The “NAV/ANCHOR” switch controls the navigation lights. The
law requires the bow light and the 360 degree light (located near
the stern) be turned on while running the boat after sunset or
before dawn. NAV position will turn on the red and green
navigation bow lights, 360 degree white stern light and gauge
illumination.
Anchor Light
The “NAV/ANCHOR” switch turns on the 360 degree light. Insert
this light pole into the receptacle located near the stern and push
the anchor switch on the pod to turn this light on. This light is
required by law to be on after sunset and before dawn when the
boat is not moving.
Bilge Pump
The “BILGE” switch turns on the bilge pump to remove excess
water from the bottom of the boat. The 196 has a bilge pump in
front of the engine. The 206 and 216 have an additional bilge
pump at the back of the boat. 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.
Controls and Indicators
Blocking navigation lights can cause
death or serious injury. DO NOT block the navigation
lights.
