I hope you get it figured out soon Dave!
I was working on Tally Ho this morning and glanced across to the neighboring dock and saw this…
I don’t know the owner, so I called the marina manager on his cell, gave him the slip # of the sinking boat. He said the owner had already been notified and was on the way.
I saw the owner show up, but it didn’t seem like much was happening, so I went over to see if i could help. He had a pump of some kind thrown down in the engine room, but it kept shutting off, I asked if he knew where the water was coming from…he said he thinks the engine strainer ‘broke”. I didn’t ask if the thru hull was closed.
He was waiting for a buddy to bring a trash pump so he could get the water pumped out.
Not sure what sort of bilge pump this boat has…but it wasn’t working apparently.
