Both my surveyor and mechanic flagged it on my Pearson. Mainesail has posted that they are not approved.

It was, from what I could tell, an old revision and I was kinda skimming. Could have easily missed it. I only question it because a squeezy was present on both boats we had surveyed and there was no mention of a problem. Many of the fellow racers I know also keep a squeezy bulb. I did find mention of electric pumps needing to be tied to the ignition on/off switch. Seems to make sense. You might not want the fuel pump to be pressurizing your system 24/7/365 subsequently feeding the contents of the fuel tank into the bilge via a ruptured hose. Just saying... ;-) Josh -- When security matters. http://www.secure-my-email.com _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com
