The post does not say that your boat is in Santa Cruz,although your email address is. If you are in Santa Cruz,contact Ray, at O'Neil yachts (the catalina dealership there). He will be able to answer your questions. If your boat is in the Bay Area, there is listed in Latitude 38 of a pumping service that will come to your berth. You may want to sail to the bay area to take advantage of this service...OR... you can get a small cheap pump that attaches to a drill and pump it out yourself. Then you know its being done correctly!!!!!! email me if you need more info..sail1752@aol.com Gary
