VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Yes, that's a problem, isn't it! I had originally written a very long piece describing that situation, but the postings are limited to a certain length. Your bilge pumps were probably always fighting in pressure inrush on the 'through hulls' since the boat was built. It only happends when your 'clipping along', Fairly disconcerting when you lift up the floor boards to check the bilge and you have 5 feet of water - it made my knees weak.... gordon
