Does anyone else notice their bilge pump running for 30 seconds or more 3-4 times a day during a normal use day? Is there a chronic problem with the drain plug. I replaced it once and check for shavings in the bilge.

Has your anchor lock drain been repaired?

I would check it to make sure it is sealed completely from the inside to out. Pretty common issue.
