And test it!

I installed my bilge alarm about 6 months ago. Had to play with the fuses (it kept blowing the 1A ones), but finally got that settled. Few weeks ago I took a cup up, put some water in it and dropped the sensor in. Not a peep.

Test it, folks.

Simple,...............the problem, is the scupper. I re did mine early on. Used on of these, 10 years later, no problems.



PS the bulk of my boat usage is for wakesurfing, so my boat is always loaded down, and low in the water. Trust me, unless u have a hull breach its the scupper.

Heck if your that paranoid, put in the new scupper ball, then seal the orafice over with some of the new rubber flex seal sheet, nothing goes in or out.
