New member...New boat (to us anyway!)

[Coz]

Well, I will probably get her into the water this weekend and check out any possible sources of water.

But after looking around here on the site and again around the boat...This deck drains into the bilge. There are no scuppers to be found. It does have two bilge pumps...one large, one small. Not sure of the ratings. But they do both work (on separate switches...not automatic).

Now, I have added :
second battery
battery switch (b1,b2,b1+b2,off)
on-board dual battery charger
stereo / amp / speakers
stern light and the outlet to plug it into

And I have fixed :
a couple of the lights that were not working...simple re-wiring
a couple of the switches that were not working...just replaced them

I still have to re-wire the blower. The blower is good...the switch is good...the wire connecting them is not. That will happen tomorrow.

I intend to install a set of Bennett hydraulic trim tabs (M120's maybe). But those will wait another payday or two.


Seriously guys, this site has helped tremendously with information about boat repairs in general, and this boat in particular.

Thank you all very much for sharing your knowledge!

Cheers!
