You know, I am just thinking that maybe the pump is wired directly to the battery but I have never left the toggle in the ON position when I nleft the boat. I will have to try that , fill the bilge with some water, then turn off the power, but leave the toggle in the on position.

But I believe it is wired so that it goes on automatically only if the pump switch on the bulkhead is switched to ON, But this means, the power to that switch has to be on, even when we are not on the boat. I am reluctant to leave that switch on when we are not on board because that means power would be on, also. Our previous boat had a small bilge pump wired directly to the battery, so when water hit a certain level, pump would go on. Any thoughts? thanks Dan Mc _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com<mailto:CnC-List@cnc-list.com>
