4.2.9 Fuel system

The boat has a fixed fuel system and a water-separating fuel filter on the suction line.

Instead of the fuel system used in the European region, the boats produced for the American region use the EPA (United States Environmental Protection Agency) fuel system regarding NMMA (National Marine Manufacturers Association) certification rules.

See the fuel system drawing in Appendix II. For care and maintenance of the fuel system, see the instructions in the engine manual.

Never start the engines if there is strong gasoline odor present.

Risk of fire.

  • Do not smoke or handle open flames when refueling.

  • Remember that it is not allowed to store fuel in spaces not specifically designed for it. Since there is no ventilated storage space on the boat, possible spare fuel cans must be stored on deck.

Fuel system component locations
  • The fuel tank is located in the middle of the keel. Prevent damage to the fuel lines.

  • The components of the tank, the fuel filter (if available) and the fuel tank valves are located under the driver's seat.The EPA fuel system is equipped with an automatic fuel valve.

  • The inlet pipe for fuel is located in the starboard side of the deck.
