Re: Done a self survey yesterday have some questions

Good question. Don't know the answer to that yet.Although the auto bilge pump was non functional and the anchor well drains to the bilge. I suspect, too, one or more of the port lights were left open.

Re: Done a self survey yesterday have some questions
