WARNING! Learn to use the boat's draining systems thoroughly in order to know how to use them properly in an emergency. RAINWATER DRAINING SYSTEM The undecked part of the boat has a draining system, which prevents rainwater from fill ing it up. At the back of floor boards there is a bushing with valve connected to a draining tube, through which water goes out through transom.
Smaller YAMARIN boats use separate fuel tanks, which are normally delivered together with the outboard engine. The YAMARIN 4730 has compartments for two separate tanks. In general the fuel hose connections are by bayonet joints, so that the separate tank is quite easy to disconnect and refill at a service station while the boat remains in water (see chapter about refuelling).
