I was outside and saw a number of flashes so I'd better power down the
computer and ride out the storm.
Had to rush out to 'The Binnacle' this afternoon to get a manual bilge pump
as a backup for my basement sump pump. I had let my two pumps go with the
Sandpiper 565 when I sold it in August.
Tom might be pleased to know that the pump was manufactured in Bridgeport CT



Isn't that interesting. Last time I was in Bridgeport, I drove through
it quickly. I knew quite a few kids from Bridgeport when I was in junior
and senior high.

Owned a house in which I had a battery operated backup sump pump. If the
electric kicked off, two 12V car batteries ran the pump. It proved its
worth at least a half dozen times while we lived in that house.
