So I have managed (with the help of some great boating friends) to iron out almost all of the initial bugs that came with buying a boat with no documentation of any kind, but last night we figured out that the water pooling around the bottom step in the cabin is coming from the shower drain.

Is there a solution for this? I can't find an access hatch anywhere that might house a pump, and when I dump water down the shower drain I can't track it to any outlet other than where it is pooling at the bottom step between the head and the sink.

As usual, any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.

5 days into Nor-Tech ownership and you still can't wipe the smile off of my face. What a fantastic hull and overall great boat.

Did you call Nor-tech ? Ask for that Sobo dude.....

In the cabinet to the right at the cabin entry, the bottom floor has a panel that lifts out. Look for screws in carpet.

Your shower sump pump is not working. Basically an auto bilge pump inside a small square box(sump) w/a clear lid . As water flows out of shower drain the box fills up. pump has to pump it out since it is too low to drain overboard. Should cycle automatically when water is running. Might have a stuck float or clogged discharge hose

He's been known to be quite helpful!!

thats what it sounds like to me as well... on my previosly owned 400SS it was under the mattress of the cabin, dont know where it would be on a 43V but I'm sure this Sobo guy may know!!!

Found it. And the pump was burned out.

New pump installed and everything is good.

Thanks for your help.
