On my oday 25 there are 2 sections for the bilge. It is like having two seperate bilges. I am considering plumbing each as its own with discharges on either side of the boat. How are yours configured? Presently minehas two pumps of equal size. One pumps to the other and then the second one does all of the work of getting the water out of the boat. Let me knowwhat you have done. seth

shallow bilge od 25
I would also like some info regarding bilge setup. My 25 has nothing, and are two individual split bilge areas. Would be nice if they communicated with each other but swing keel trunk does'nt allow it. How is yours plumbed. I was thinking of teeing it into sink drain plumbing so i don;t add another thru hull. But there would have to be a one way valve of somekind.

seth, how much water are you getting in?
If you have excess ammounts of water getting in. you have leaks. They should be addressed first! As far as the bilge, I have a manual on one side and an electric on the other. I have yet to use them!. If I have an inch of water, I use a sponge to clear it out. The only time I have an inch of water is after a water battle that the club puts on. Your bilge should be dry. r.w.landau s/v Continuance "79"O'Day 25 cb

leaks, O yeah
The water is coming in around the rub rail from abut the middle of the combing back along the stern. When it starts raining these things kick on. I will be trying to settle this over the winter. Seth-
