Boat Coolers & Bilge Pump
Hey all....
Brand new (pre-owned) boat owner here. The bilge pump on my 2000 Chaparral
worked fine when I first got the boat June. Now it won't turn on... makes
no noise / indication it's running at all. I'll take it in for service but
thought I'd ask here if there's anything *simple* I can check as to why it's
not working.
Also.... the coolers and the under-deck storage compartment have never
really drained properly / completely since the first day, even when the
bilge pump was working fine. Do these typically drain straight out of the
boat or go to an area that the bilge is supposed to pump out? I've read
through the ownership manual but didn't find any information about this.
Any replies / insight much appreciated!!
