Re: Bilge Pump Recommendation & Hose size

If you only add a y for the second pump your going to be pumping back through the other pump. You'll need something to stop back flow. Or you could add a second hose and drill a separate hole.

Re: Outdrive fin

Trim should be down. Then once your boat is up on plane you can start to trim up. If the bow starts to bounce up and down you've trim up too far and need to trim back down until the bow stops bouncing.

Next to your perko switch you should have some jumper lugs ( red and black ) Let’s see our running voltage ( yes you need a volt meter) as once under 10.5 volts ecm and systems stop working.

Shrink wrap the tires ?

Re: Run those Bilge Blowers!

Good discussion on running the bilge blower after refueling. Related question: After you are underway, when is it safe to turn the blower OFF or does it need to run anytime the motor is running?

Great day on the water. Air temp 72 water temp 79. Not much wind or today. Our lake very seldom lays flat. Always something rolling. Went for a nice long run.
