    Washdown

    The washdown on my 2001 248 Voyager has never worked correctly ( I bought it used) I have drained the tank, put a clorox solution in to kill any growth, but still not working. I can hear the pump operating so any suggestions would be appreciated.

    New 247 Voyager to me and looking at the anchor pulpit, my question is can I run with a Danforth anchor hanging/snugged up against the roller or do I need to hang back in the anchor locker after each use? Thanks
