Towers

Many MasterCraft models are now equipped with a tower, whether as part of a standard package or as an optional addi- tion. Again, MasterCraft strongly encourages the occupants of the boat to review the Common Sense Approach and the Boating Safety sections of this Owner’s Manual prior to use of the boat and the tower component.

Occupants of the boat should never stand, sit or jump from the tower. Nothing but MasterCraft-approved towing should be at- tempted. (See Boating Safety section of this Owner’s Manual.)

Boat owners are strongly urged to purchase tower accessories only through an authorized MasterCraft dealer. MasterCraft has carefully determined the maximum amount of accessories and total weight that the tower can safely hold. Ignoring this information could result in injury to the boat operator and/or passengers.

MasterCraft has determined that for the tower utilized on the 2009 models, the total weight of all accessories mounted on the tower should never exceed 85 pounds, regardless of whether the acces- sories are MasterCraft-approved and supplied or have come from an aftermarket supplier. Exceeding this restriction can result in tower failure, which could result in serious injury or death to the boat operator and/or passengers.

Video Screen

The CSX 265 offers a video screen that drops down from the T- Top option. See the accompanying instructional information to determine how to use the unit. (See image above right.)

Water Heater

On the CSX 265 model, a four-gallon hot water heater is an option. Unlike the shower option on other models, which draws heat from a running engine, the CSX 265 water heater functions as a hot water retention tank after the engine has run.

The shower is located in the head compartment and at the transom. Water is drawn in by way of a pump that is turned on at the breaker panel in the head compartment. The heat is provided by running the port side engine for 15-to-20 minutes. After the water has been heated, however, the insulated tank will retain the hot water for several hours. This allows the shower to be run without the engine running, and if the engine is OFF, it is possible to shower while standing on the swim platform. (See Common Sense Approach section for cautions regarding using the shower with the engine running.)

The water pumped into the heater comes from a freshwater holding tank, and it can be left in the water heater when the boat is not in use, EXCEPT during extended periods of storage. As with any part of the boat in which there is water, it must be removed at the time the boat is winterized to avoid freezing that may cause damage to the boat, the holding tank or the water heater. The water is removed by running the shower until all the water has come out or by disconnecting the plumbing fittings in the forward service bay under the helm seats.
