A Welcome note from the owners
Hello, and welcome aboard Gamapotay. Debbie and I are pleased that you have
selected our boat for your vacation. We hope your journey is a safe, happy and
memorable occasion.
We chose to name our Motor Yacht, Gamapotay, after a mythical Indian Scout
that explored and charted the Northwest waters long before great explorers like
Cook and Vancouver arrived. It is rumored that Gamapotay found the fountain of
youth during one of his many expeditions among the San Juan and Gulf islands.
Many will say that it is still thriving even to this day...
Please sign our guest book and feel free to help us continue the story!
In addition, Debbie and I have posted a few videos on youtube that will offer you
a tour of the boat and also share some of the fun we have had exploring...
Simply log on to www.youtube.com and enter ʻGamapotay ʻin the search field
and you can be the judge of our film making debut!
Gama has been a wonderful boat for us and we have enjoyed many special
outings. One of the greatest highlights, thus far, was our trip to Alaska during the
summer of 2009. That said, it is hard to beat the splendor and beauty of the
Northwest right here in San Juans.
Pack your bags and take your time - there are many experiences that await.
Welcome Aboard!

OPERATIONS MANUAL
We hope you have a very enjoyable and safe trip aboard Gamapotay and at your
destinations. This manual is provided to assist you in operating the boat and all the
systems aboard. Please take time to review this manual thoroughly. Be sure
to contact your Checkout Captain to verify information and/or ask any
questions.
The ultimate responsibility for the safety of crew and vessel is with the person who
charters the boat. The chartering Captain has represented that his/her experience,
judgment, and skills are adequate to overcome any errors and/or omissions in this manual
and checkout procedures.
This manual provides information necessary for an experienced boater to operate the
systems and equipment on Gamapotay. This is not a training manual and assumes that
the reader has sufficient experience with similar yachts and systems.
Safety is a top priority. All procedures should be clearly understood before proceeding.
Safety cannot be completely managed by procedures alone and requires experience and
common sense to be achieved.
This manual does not include navigational, weather assessment, or boat handling skill
instructions.
As the Captain, you are responsible for the safety of all crew members and the yacht. It is
the Captain’s responsibility to understand all instruction and information provided in this
manual. If there are any questions about this manual or if any scenario that this manual
does not cover, please call Anacortes Yacht Charters at 1- 800- 233-3004, for
assistance.
IMPORTANT POINTS:
Safety is the most important item in all of the following information and safety
considerations will be emphasized. Plan ahead and review procedures to prevent
accidents. Make sure your crew is prepared to assist as needed by training them
beforehand. Inform all onboard how better to assist you and what is expected from them.
This is especially important when readying the ship for voyage, for docking, and for
anchoring. Almost anything done without preparation can be high risk for accidents, so
take your time, train your crew before they have to perform, and let everyone enjoy the
fun!

Please read this complete manual thoroughly and ask AYC about anything that is not
clear or that may be missing. Taking the time to read this manual completely will save
you time, money, and risk of injury when arrive on holiday.
1. PRE-START CHECK LIST
Before you operate the vessel for the day, do an inspection of the mechanical systems and
the engine room. Any problem is much easier and safer to fix while securely tied up at
dock, or at anchor, than it is while adrift.
A. MAIN ENGINE CHECKOUT
1) With a flashlight, enter engine room via the stair hatch on the aft deck. Lift the stairs
to gain access to the room. Engine room light is located on the left sidewall as you
enter.
CAUTION: WHEN REPLACING HATCH DO NOT LET IT SLAM SHUT.
2) Check oil level in main engines once weekly. Dipsticks are down low near center of
engines facing centerline of boat. Oil level should be between the full and add marks.
If below the add mark add oil until it gets between the full and add mark. In between
weekly oil quantity checks - check below engine for oil leakage. If substantial oil
leakage is found check quantity.
3) Check fresh water coolant level in translucent expansion tanks. They are located
inboard of each engine. There should be only about 1 inch present when cold. They
will have much more in them when engine is warm.
4) Check for excessive water in bilge (no more than 1 inch or manually turn on bilge
pump to pump out). Check general condition of belts, hoses and fuel lines.
5) Verify through-hull valves for each engine and the generator are open.
6) Check sea strainers aft of each engine for obvious obstructions like seaweed or
plastic. There are sea strainers for the engines (2) Cruisaire heat pumps and water
maker (1), and generator (1).
To Clean Sea Strainers: Close thru hull valve for sea strainer raw water intake, and
disassemble sea strainer and clean basket. Re-assemble sea strainer, open thru hull
and make sure there are no leaks. For the engine and generator, start and check
immediately for water flow out of exhaust. If no water is flowing out of the exhaust
within 1 minute, shut down the engine. Recheck the sea strainer to make sure it has
June 1, 2010

picked up a prime and does not have mostly air in the sea strainer. If not, the raw
water pump may have a weak impeller. Please contact AYC.
7) Inspect the Racor fuel filters and make sure they are clear and do not have water
accumulated in the bottom by shining the flashlight through the filter housing towards
yourself. There are 2 filters per engine. If water is present, it may be drained out
through the valve on the bottom of the filter housing. BE SURE TO HAVE A
CONTAINER READY TO CATCH THE WATER AND FUEL! Clean up any spilled fuel
immediately. Make sure the valve is closed and not dripping.
8) Check transmission fluid levels weekly. Dip sticks are on the inboard side of each
transmission. Re-insert dipsticks and make sure they are firmly in place.
9) Look for anything else that looks out of place, loose, disconnected, or broken. There
should not be any fluids under the engines and the drip pads should be mostly clean.
If you notice any significant fluid, identify the source and cleanup then notify AYC.
B. GENERATOR CHECKOUT
The generator should be checked prior to running the first time and then once a week
thereafter.
June 1, 2010

8
Open the center panel on the aft deck to gain access to the lazzarette. Remove the aft
panel of the generator sound shield by unscrewing fasteners on top, a half turn, and pull
the panel free.
1) Check oil - dipstick is down low on generator engine starboard side.
2) Check fresh water coolant in the expansion tank of the generator. Trace the overflow
tube from the generator to the expansion tank to locate it. Add distilled water if needed.
3) Check generator sea strainer for obvious obstructions. Also make sure the through hull
valve is open. Open is the normal position. Do not run the generator with this closed or it
will fail the raw water impeller.
4) Re-attach sound shield and snugly tighten fastener screws.
C. BATTERY CHECKOUT
Check batteries once weekly. Check water level in starting batteries, house batteries and
generator battery. All battery exterior surfaces should be dry and free of corrosion. All
wire terminals should be tightly fastened. If there is significant corrosion or evidence of
failing wires, please notify AYC.
1) Use rubber gloves to prevent acid burns on your hands. Wash the gloves with soap
and water when done to prevent acid getting on other objects.
2) For all batteries that need water, add distilled water only (using a funnel and
flashlight) until the water comes up to touch the bottom of the split ring. Wipe up all
excess water that spills with paper towel and make sure to dispose of the paper towel
in a plastic bag.
3) All batteries are in the lazarette. The house batteries are (8, two per battery box) golf
cart style 6 volt located on the starboard side of the lazarette. The starter batteries are
12 volt car style (2 per engine) with two located on the starboard side and two located
on the port side in the lazarette.
4) The generator uses to port side engine start batteries.
NOTE: the inverter system will charge the house batteries. A separate battery charger
charges the start batteries.

D. STARTING and STOPPING MAIN ENGINES
After your engine room check, you are ready to start main engines.
NOTE: the KEYs are used to turn on the starter buttons and to stop the engines.
Stop the engines by turning off the key. The engines can also be shut down by hitting the
stop buttons located above the start buttons however this will cause the alarm bell to
sound due to lack of oil pressure with the start key remaining in the on position.
If engines have been off for over 8 hours, make sure they run for at least 5 minutes and
that the temperature gauges show at least 140 before going over 1000 RPM. Running
underway with cold engines can more than double fuel consumption and can cause
engine failure.
Make sure engine power levers are in neutral before starting.
Note: Engines will not start while if power levers are in gear!
June 1, 2010

10
Turn on ignition key(s). Wait for until all engine warning lights on dash panel extinguish.
1) Push Start Button for 1 engine. Engine should start within 5 seconds. Repeat for
second engine.
2) Let the engines warmup.
3) Voltmeter gauge will read 26-28 volts.
4) Oil pressure will read around 50 psi or above for cold engines. Warm engines will
read in the 30‘s when idling but should never be at zero for a running engine.
5) Engine temperature should rise to operating temperature of 160-180 degrees. Keep
engine RPM below 1000 until temperature is at least 140.
EMERGENCY STARTING: If starting batteries are run down and will not start
engines or generator use the emergency battery parallel switch in the pilothouse helm to
connect the start batteries to the house batteries giving them a boost and start the
generator. This switch is adjacent the start switches on the left.
ENGINE SLOWDOWN AND SHUTDOWN
1) VERY IMPORTANT: When running at cruising speeds, avoid suddenly
dropping engine speed to idle. Gradually reduce speed over a minute or
June 1, 2010

11
more. Rapid changes in RPM can cause rapid temperature changes in the
engine and exhaust system which can cause engine or exhaust heat-stress
cracks and/or breakdowns.
Then let engines idle for at least 5 minutes to cool down the turbos and fully
lubricate the engine. Do not shut the main engines down immediately after
running at cruising speeds. Cooling down will also help to avoid coolant boil-
over and vapor locks in the fuel line due to overheating.
2) NOTE: The black buttons are STARTER buttons. To turn off each engine,
turn off the respective key
2. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:
A. 120 VOLT SYSTEM
120 Volt electricity is used to run TV/VCRs, air conditioning, electric heat,
microwave, wall outlets, etc.
•The 120 volt system breakers are in the cabinet in the pilot house helm on the
Starboard side aft of the pilothouse door.
•Switches for shore power or Ship (generator power) are located in this panel in
the center just under the Voltage Meter. The switch is set up so that only one
source can be used at a time.
•120 volt power can be obtained from three sources.
a. shore power
b. generator
c. inverter
June 1, 2010

12
B. SHORE POWER
Important!! Make sure you read this section and understand it completely!
Special Considerations: Care should be taken not to exceed the shore power available.
This vessel’s potential to consume electricity will exceed the dock’s capacity to provide it
unless you are connected to 50 Amp power. (Very rare for transient moorage)
Note that most shore power you connect to will be 120V 20, 30 or 50Amp. If 50 Amp
power is not available a pigtail is on board to use (2) 30 Amp connections into a 50 Amp
connector. You can tell if you are correctly hooked up if both 120v meters on the power
panel show voltage. If two 30 Amp dock connections are not available another adapter is
available to go from the single 30Amp shore power to a 50 Amp ships connector. Note: if
using 30 amp power the boats systems will not supply power to the Marine Air - air
conditioning and heat system or the washer and dryer.
The shore power cord is on an electrically operated cord located on the aft side of the
transom and can be accessed from the swim platform. Open the Port locker to access the
switch for the cord. Remove the chrome cover for the electric cord the move the switch to
the “out” position. The electric cord will begin to reel out onto the swim platform. Once
enough cord has been reeled out to allow it to be connected to the shore power receptacle
turn the reel switch to the stop position. To stow the electric cord simply reverse the
operation using the retract side on the reel switch.
June 1, 2010

13
NOTE: You cannot use all 120 circuits and electrical items with only one 30 amp
source. It may pop the shore power circuit breaker. Check the ammeter on the power
panel to see how much power you are using. You may have to alternate between electric
cook-top, water heater, and battery chargers in order to avoid popping the shore power
breaker. Priority should always be given to the inverter which will charge all the
batteries.
C. GENERATOR STARTING AND USE
When shore power is unavailable, the generator can fully power the boat. It is a good
idea to run the generator every day that you have not been connected to shore power to
recharge all the batteries. Monitor the battery voltage levels to determine how long to run
the generator. The generator may be operated while underway. Make sure water is
coming out of the generator exhaust under the starboard side of the boarding step before
using while underway.
Access the main Power Panel:
1. To start generator simply press the generator start switch in the 120 volt electric
cabinet. Keep the start switch depressed until the generator starts and the panel gets a
green light. the green light indicates the generator if running and fully functional.
2. Next, turn 120 selector switch to Ship Power. This will put the generator online.
June 1, 2010

14
3. Never run generator for less than 30 minutes from a cold start.
4. To turn off generator, simply press the start/stop switch to the stop position. This will
automatically shut down the generator.
D. INVERTER – 3000 Watt 110v Power
NOTE: The inverter system is setup to be totally automatic and should not need any
changes to the settings.120 volt power can be provided by the inverter which uses 12
volt battery power to make 120 volt AC current. 120 volt power is very limited with the
inverter because it comes from a limited source. You cannot run high use devices like
space heaters, hair dryers, waffle irons, at the same time or for any combined length of
time. It will drain the batteries to the point of inverter shutdown.
The inverter’s best use is to provide low wattage, or intermittent 120 volt power during
an evening to save the generator from constant short start-ups and shut downs.
When the boat is on shore power or has the generator running, the inverter becomes a
battery charger for the house battery banks.
The remote switch and indicator panel for the inverter is located to the left of the
electrical panel console. NO SETTINGS SHOULD BE CHANGED ON THE
INVERTER CONTROL PANEL.
To operate the inverter:
1. Turn on the breaker on the 120 volt panel.
2. The inverter is operated by the remote panel to the top right of the electrical panel.
The inverter is can be in standby or off for 120 volt power. The charger can be
selected on or off. Typically the inverter is off and the charger is on.
3. The inverter will power the 120v AC outlets, ice maker, refridgerator and the
microwave.
E. ELECTRIC WATER HEATER
Electric water heater runs off of 120 volt system. The circuit breaker is on the
120 volt panel. VERY IMPORTANT: Do not use the electric water heater if the water
tanks are very low or if they run dry. The electric element may burn up if the tank has no
water. The water heater is also heated by the engines. The Hurricane heat system is not
connected to the ships hot water system.
June 1, 2010

15
F. 24 VOLT SYSTEM
The 24-volt system runs the electrical systems necessary to operate the vessel. Bilge
pumps, water pumps, electric toilets, navigation lights, house lights, electronics, etc. are
24 volt systems.
24 Volt Battery power panel
•Turn on all 24V breakers.
•For safety, Windlass Control breaker should be OFF except when using the
windlass. Holding Tank Pump and Raw Water Wash down Pump should be OFF.
•NOTE: all bilge pump breakers should be ON and switches should be set to
automatic all the time.
The 24-volt circuit breakers are located on the electrical panel console. Only use the light
you need. There are sufficient lights and other 24-volt devices to drain the house
batteries of power if they were all left on overnight.
G. BATTERY SWITCHES
The battery switches are located in the engine room on the aft bulkhead immediately to
the left as you enter the engine room. These are normally left in the ‘On ‘ position.
June 1, 2010

16
H. BATTERY CHARGER
There is a separate battery charger for the engine start batteries. No intervention is
required. The charger works when plugged into shore power or the generator is on line.
I. DEAD BATTERIES
In case batteries are drained to the point they will not start engines, start the generator and
run for at least one hour before attempting to start engines again. If the generator will not
start try using the battery emergency boost switch located on the engine start panel next
to the engine start switches. Have one person push that switch while another pushes the
generator start switch.
3. MARINE HEADS AND HOLDING TANK
This vessel has two heads, each with an electric toilet. It has one holding tank with a
capacity indicator in the 24 volt cabinet. Additionally, each toilet has a tank full
indication.
A. ELECTRIC Tecma TOILETS
It is critical that every member of the crew be informed regarding the proper use of
marine toilets. Never operate the toilet when the tank is full. Each unit is equipped with a
‘red light’ indication that signals the tank is full. PLEASE PAY ATTENTION
Flushing the toilet when the tank is full could result in rupturing the holding tank or
blowing a line or fitting.
NEVER dispose of paper towels, tampons, Kleenex, sanitary napkins, household toilet
tissue undigested food, etc., in the marine toilets. In the event of seasickness, DO NOT
USE THE MARINE TOILETS. The valves, openings and pumps are extremely small
and will clog very easily. A clogged toilet, blown fitting, or tank can be very expensive to
repair. It will leave a huge mess and potentially ruin a vacation.
The two toilets are slightly different from each other. The forward toilet is a “dry” bowl.
That is to say that when not in use the bowl doesn’t have water in it. If you wish to fill the
bowl before use push the “PreFill” switch on the panel on the sink cabinet. In the middle
of the two buttons is a light. It will be illuminated in green if the tank is not full and ready
for use. If the tank is full the light will be red indicating the toilet should not be used until
the tank is emptied. (see section on holding tank).
June 1, 2010

17
1) To operate the forward toilet, make sure the 24volt breakers are on at the power
panel.
2) The fresh water pump breaker must be on to supply the toilets with fresh water.
3) To flush, simply push the flush button.
The aft toilet is a “wet” bowl. This toilet contains water when not in use. This head has a
tank indicator light just below the light switch. If the tank is full the light will illuminate
in red. If the light is red this will indicate the toilet should not be used until the tank is
emptied. (see section on holding tank).
June 1, 2010

18
1) To operate the main stateroom toilet, make sure the 24volt breakers are on at the
power panel.
2) The fresh water pump breaker must be on to supply the toilets with fresh water.
3) To flush, simply push the flush button.
B. Showers & Sumps
Each shower has a European style water temperature and pressure control. Once set, you
only need to turn on the water and it will stay at the set temperature.
Each shower has a sump pump that is activated by a float switch. This requires the 24
volt circuit breaker to be on. If the shower is used without the circuit breaker, the shower
water will end up in the bilges and be pumped out by the bilge pumps. Shower water in
the bilges can get smelly, so please make sure the sump pumps are used.
Each head has an exhaust fan. Do not leave running for long periods of time to avoid
excessive battery drain if you are not using shore power.
June 1, 2010

19
C. Y-VALVES
This boat is not equipped with Y valves
D. HOLDING TANK
The holding tank is located under the cabin sole, below the hanging locked in the master
stateroom.
IMPORTANT: You must be mindful of the extent of your crew’s use of the holding
tank. Do not rely only on the holding tank warning light located in each head. A tank
quantity indicator is located in the 24 volt circuit breaker cabinet on the starboard side of
the helm console. This gauge will also give the fresh water quantity level. Just push the
quantity button until it reads for the appropriate tank you wish to check.
NEVER allow the holding tank to overfill. It is possible to break a hose, clog the
overflow vent, or burst the tank if it is used when it is full. The result is an indescribable
unpleasant catastrophe for the whole crew and a costly repair bill.
Pumping out the holding tank is done one of two ways. There is a deck pump out port on
the starboard side (at about the mid salon) for use with marina pump out stations. Also,
the boat is equipped with a macerator overboard pump. The contents of the holding tank
can be pumped overboard with the macerator pump in appropriate areas. (NOTE:
Anchorages and harbors are never legal/appropriate places.)
To operate macerator:
1. Turn on macerator circuit breaker on the 24 volt panel at the lower left corner of the
panel as you are looking at it.
2. Insure the macerator thru hull valve is open. This is located below the sole on the
starboard side of the hanging locker in the master stateroom. Open is the normal
position for this thru hull valve.
3. Listen carefully for macerator’s operation. While pumping monitor the tank quantity
indicator. Make sure you are viewing the correct tank (not the fresh water indication).
You will notice the quantity going down very slowly. When the tank is empty the
pitch of the motor will change and you may hear air bubbles coming out on the hull.
When pitch of motor changes (or before), discontinue operation.
4. NEVER run macerator for lengthy periods when holding tank is empty. This will
prevent pump burnout. (There is a spare macerator pump in the spares kit.)
June 1, 2010

4. GALLEY
A. STOVE TOP
The stove top is powered by the breaker on the 110volt panel. You must have at least 30
amp shore power and limited other 110v use, or the generator running to operate the
stove top. Boiling water for crab can be done on the stove top but is very slow. For
filling the crab pot - you may wish to assist the stove top by adding boiling water from
the electric tea pot.
B. CONVECTION MICROWAVE
The convection microwave is connected to the power inverter. An instruction card for
use is in a galley drawer. Do not use the microwave for extended cooking while on power
inverter. Any convection cooking more than 15 minutes should be done while connected
to shore power or running generator, otherwise, you may run down the inverter batteries.
Coffee maker, toaster, and other electrical appliances may be plugged into the power
outlets in the galley that are powered by the battery inverter.Use care when using
multiple devices simultaneously as the breaker may pop or inverter power may turn off
due to over loading the curcuit.
Galley Crew Note: The coffee maker uses one coffee measure of coffee for each 2 cups
of water shown on the coffee maker for “Seattle Standard Coffee”; moderately heavy
coffee.
The sink does not have a garbage disposal. do not put coffee grounds down the drain.
Doing so will clog the overboard drain. Note the sink discharges directly into the water.
C. Refrigerator Freezer
The refrigerator freezer is 110 volt only and runs off the shore power, generator, or
inverter powered by the house batteries. The refrigerator will take 8-12 hours to fully
cool down when first turned on. However it is normally on prior to the commencement of
charter. If on the hook and using inverter power it is standard procedure to turn off the
inverter prior to going to sleep to protect the batteries. The refrigerator/freezer will
remain cold during the night. Remember to turn on the inverter in the morning or the
generator (necessary for hot water for showers).
D. Bar B Q Grill
A Bar BQ grill is located on the rail of the aft deck for your pleasure. The regulator and
gas bottles are in the locker to your immediate left as you enter the boat from the aft
deck. When returning the gas bottle to the locker remove the regulator to prevent
unwanted release of gas from the bottle.
