Added a counter. It was great. Then I replace bilge pump with new water sensing integrated one. Not great. It records all of the sensing cycles. Need to replace it again with old school pump.

After going through the boat what I thought was pretty well prior to moving the boat, we took off one morning to start the 120 mile trip. After a few minutes getting outside the harbor, I had one of my friends take the helm. I went down below to check things out, and found our bilge pump switch like this one throwing a red light: https://www.amazon.com/Rule-41-Marine-Deluxe-12-Volt/dp/B000O8EZYA/ref=asc_df_B000O8EZYA/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312128389336&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=6108134242188170768&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9012380&hvtargid=pla-570016585845&psc=1 That caused me to investigate, and I found that water was coming into the boat through a cracked exhaust hose all the way at the stern where it exited the boat. We turned around, got back to the marina, got a piece of hose, and had everything fixed less than 3 hours later. I'm glad that light turns on when the bilge pump turns on! I would, however like to add a counter on my two bilge pumps... Bruce Whitmore (847) 404-5092 (mobile) bwhitm...@sbcglobal.net<mailto:bwhitm...@sbcglobal.net>
