Re: Tsunami Sutphen
No problem LOTO. I wish I had known that was just your Girlfriend, I thought it was your wife so I backed off. 
Just kidding, I was very impressed by her adventuresome and positive attitude. She seems like a great down to earth woman. You have yourself a real winner, I hope to find the same again some day. Glad to hear the fix was cheap, most bilge pumps have an auto setting, mine does and I found it has to be on or it will never start. Seems a major design flaw, what good is a device for safety that needs to be manually turned on? Not much good is it.
