water supply while the engine is operating. This option
will provide hot water at times when 120 volt power is
not available. Additional information on heat exchang-
ers is covered in the engine and hot water heater
manufacturers’ manuals. Please refer to Section H on
Electrical Systems for additional information.
Periodically check the sump pump screen for clogs
to prevent drainage problems from occurring in the
shower drain. Refer to the manufacturer’s literature
included in the owner’s packet.
J - 3    GREY WATER SYSTEM
D.   Using The Shower
The grey water system is optional on Vista® models.
The water from the galley sink, head sink and shower
will drain into a sump and is pumped into a grey water
holding tank respectively.  The waste level indicator is
located in the head compartment.  A pumpout fitting
labeled WASTE but designated for grey water is
provided on the deck.  Refer to the drawings at the
end of this section.
Turn on the faucets to desired temperature, remove
the shower spout from its holder, move the diverter
lever on the shower head, and the shower is
operational.
When using the shower, draw the shower curtain
before using the shower.  Dam age to the finish can
result if sur rounding walls and flooring are allowed to
become excessively wet. Thoroughly dry these areas
after showering.
NOTICE
Certain geographical areas have restrictions
on grey water being pumped or drained
overboard.  Be sure to check all local, state
and federal laws in the boating area.
The water temperature can vary during shower
use as the pressure pump cycles on and off.
For greatest consistency, turn the cold water on
full, then mix in hot water until the desired
temperature is obtained.

SHORE WATER CONNECTION
Shore water connection is standard on the V265 and
V285 models. This feature allows the direct con-
nection of a city or shoreside water supply to the
boat’s water system to provide a constant supply of
fresh water without the need to constant ly refill the
water supply tank. This minimizes pressure pump
operation thus extending the life span of the pump.
A shower sump pump is incorporated into the drain
system of the shower. The shower drains into the
sump pump located forward of the aft cabin. The
water will then be pumped overboard. If a grey water
system is installed, the water will be pumped into the
grey water holding tank.
The sump pump includes an automatic bilge switch
and is protected by a circuit breaker located on the
battery switch panel for the bilge. The sump pump will
automatically start as soon as the water in the sump
reach es a level that will cause the float on the switch
to rise.
Dockside shore water pressure can vary dramatically.
Excess pressure could damage the boat’s water
system so the shore connection also regulates the
water pressure to a maximum of 35 psi.
The shore water inlet/regulator fitting is located
outboard, on the starboard side of the transom above
the swim platform. See Figures J3 and the drawings
at the end of this section.
After showering, let the water flow for a period of time
to flush the pump of soap residue. Check the sump
for excess residue. When rinsed out, the pump will
automatically shut off.
To use shore water, connect a hose from the shore
water faucet to the shore water fitting on the boat and
turn on the shore water. The water system of the boat
will then be pressurized by city water if the system
was previously primed.
If water flow from the shower head appears to be
restricted, it may be due to sediment accumulating at
the shower head. If necessary, remove the head and
clean the discharge holes with a fine wire.
The water pump should be turned off when using city
water. If the pump is OFF, the pump will not function
and the water in the storage tank of the boat will not
be utilized.
