Re: My Worst Boating Day Yet
Just to get back on the horse...had a short sea trial on a 330 SS Formula and a longer one on a 33' Coastal yesterday. No problems, but we didn't stop for 4 hours and bounce around either.
Wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

It's amazing that a 4 million dollar yacht could leave you feeling so helpless and all over a stupid pump. Was it just a bad pump or was there a problem getting power to the pump?

I am surprised there is no redundancy for the transfer system on a yacht that size. If I had something capable of crossing oceans, I would want redundancy in all systems.
