I agree with Tuna Man, if someone close fishes alot, the seagulls would do the same thing over and over when they fillet,I actually had a similar problem , dead bunker all over my boat time and again, finally found them dang birds were picking them from the water and dropping on my boat, to me...

Vinigar trick should be done a few times a season, to keep things smelling like salad :)

Aux switches are wired to power so the light when on, this is only to show the switch is on, if something is to be actually controlled by the switch that would have to be wired seperately to the same switch on a different terminal which is seperate from the lighted switch terminal.

I hate names, needed one when I documented my new boat though, went with wife first and middle name and got the block letters color to match the boat so "technically" it would meet CG documentation regulations................so be it :)

I would contact Grady direct, they can give you names of contractors (they did for me years ago for warranty work) that they work with

I owned an 24' explorer which had two tanks and always ran them as empty as possible treated and pulled the boat in early november, in early april i would manually drain the tanks by disconnecting the primer bulb and "pumping" remaining fuel out into a portable tank, then i would check for water...

Looking into getting a boat cover for my 29' chesapeak instead of paying for shrink wrapping every year, i just received a quote from "Boat Covers" at about $800 bucks, looking for any comment from people in the northeast on how their covers perform against shrink wrapping and the products from...

If this site eliminates spammers where will I do my shopping? :bang

How did you make out?

Your local marine store should have it or changer it, just give them the name of manufacturer, my local store in NJ (Lockwood marine) had it on the shelf, west probably does too The vinigar treatment should happen also as specified by manufacturer

Do you perform required service? First you need to add about 1-2 pints of vinigar and dry pump it into the system and let stand for 24 hours, longer will not hurt anything Yearly replacement off pump bellow gasket also required, no big deal to replace I bet that sovles your problem

Just a thought, is the pee hole clear, alot of times you'll get salt deposite and it will need to be cleared with a piece of wire.

Thanks guys i have access to a machine shop so I am going to make the plate out of aluminum and epoxy to the hull Much appreciated
