A Tip From Marquis!
a small amount of water always collects in your yachts's bilge. the water
is usually not enough to activate the automatic switch on the bilge pump.
while underway, use the helm switches to manually turn the bilge pumps
on, and let the pumps run for 30 seconds to one minute. when your yacht
is on plane, water in the bilge flows to the stern, where the aft bilge pump
is located. the amidships bilge pumps are near the lowest point in the hull.
