Water in the bilge
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			I am returning from a boat shopping trip in North East US.  I look at 
some boat that have been yard maintained and on land for a while and one 
boat in the water.  When lifting the floor board on three boat on land and 
one in the water I found that their bilge's were top full of water.   The 
bilge 
pumps and float switches were under water.  I wonder what the winter sub 
zero temperature will do.  I have had a sailboat for 24 years and never had 
a bilge full of water.  I wonder what could exactly be the cause of this 
water accumulation.
