Seawater system. Draining
If it is not possible to keep the engine compartment
free of frost, the seawater system must be drained to
prevent freezing damage.
Note that all the seawater must be drained. The type
of drainage must be adapted to the way in which the
engine is installed and any additional equipment that
is connected, for example sea water filter (2),
vacuum valve (8), silencer (7) etc.
WARNING! Risk of water penetration. Close the
sea cock before starting work.
IMPORTANT! If the boat is laid-up for winter or
the off season, the seawater system must be
instead flushed clean and protect against
corrosion according to the instructions in the
previous section.

1. Close the seawater cock (1).
2. Remove the cover and sealing plate on the sea
water filter (2).
3. Remove the cover (3) from the seawater pump. Let

4. Open the drain cock (4) on the rear end of the heat
exchanger and drain the water off.
