Harry, I do all that stuff too but I prob push things further than
most people would. Most of boat trips, nothing noteworthy happens
unless you go someplace unexpected and I like to explore. My install
of a 3600 gph pump on my 20' Tolman Skiff may seem odd and result in
some wiring problems but will give me peace of mind.


What's odd about the install?
Should be pretty straightforward.
You got a secret you're not letting out?

Nothing odd really. HArry was saying I had all these problems with
boats and this was the last thing I remember posting about the Tolman
he could be referring to. Going to use 10 guage wire and a dedicated
deep cycle battery for it. It will have its own housing at the
transom with smooth walled hose going up to a straight thru-hull for
max flow. Roughly a 3' rise. I figure it'll get rid of water fast.
