2008 Ar230 bilge pump location

[Chumash]

Hello,

After not using my boat for a couple of years, I am getting it dialed in to get back on the water. I cannot locate the bilge pump. Looking on the schematic, I thought it was in the engine compartment. Didn't see it there, and doesn't make sense to be there. Is it located under the tray for the cleanout plugs? I had it off several years ago to replace the scupper, and cannot remember if it's in there or not. Before I remove the tray again, I wanted to check and find the exact location. I want to make sure it is still good and possibly add an additional pump. Any info or guidance is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Ted

It should be between the engines near the back of the engine compartment

The floor of the engine compartment is divided into 3 sections with drain plugs in the forward 2 and the bilge pump in the aft section, it is mounted in a hole thru the engine bay floor, open to the bilge below.

Thanks for the replies. Saved me some time by needlessly taking off the cleanout plug tray.

Glad to have you on board and that you're getting your boat back on the water,

This is from our FAQ tab at the top of the page, it has many great tips about your boat, this one is about adding a second bilge pump (there's also one there about cleaning your current pump)

Zipper - I am reviewing your reply. Can you Attach your diagram in a reply to me? I am having the same location with my 2008 AR230 but I can not read it from my computer. Thank you if you can help me.
