I somehow developed a very slow drip from my aft shower sump. Must have spent an hour with my head down there yesterday trying to figure out where it was coming from. All the hose connections and the entrance to those show no sign of leaks however the elevated aluminum plate to which the shower sump is screwed down to drips from the side, almost like it is coming from underneath the shower sump. May need to remove the box to see if there is a crack or something on the underside.water in bilge

Re: water in bilge
Good job. I somehow developed a very slow drip from my aft shower sump. Must have spent an hour with my head down there yesterday trying to figure out where it was coming from. All the hose connections and the entrance to those show no sign of leaks however the elevated aluminum plate to which the shower sump is screwed down to drips from the side, almost like it is coming from underneath the shower sump. May need to remove the box to see if there is a crack or something on the underside.

Re: water in bilge
Yea, could be where they fixed it to the plate. Can you believe I’m actually waiting for it to rain to see my bilge? That’s a first!!!!!!

Re: water in bilge
So update. We had some really nice storms roll through the area with lots of rain and winds. Bilge is very dry!
