Engine Cooling Water Intake Valve

Your Nautique is equipped with a valve (seacock) on the engine cooling water intake. The handle has a slide mechanism to prevent the valve from being shut off inadvertently. The valve is used to shut off the water supply in the event a hose failure or water leakage occurs. The valve is open when the blue handle is in-line with the valve body and the valve is closed when the handle is perpendicular to the valve body. Leave the valve open at all times unless an emergency condition requires you to close the valve to stop a leak or the possibility of a leak.

The valve is located fore of the engine compartment. If your boat is equipped with a ballast system, the engine cooling valve (A) will be the first valve (larger valve), on the starboard side. The valve can be accessed by removing the built-in cooler, under the aft cockpit seat.
