I have again water in the ship!



As you know, this bilge has no communication with any other bilges ...




The part where the tube goes through the boat is mire than wet! ...




We cleaned that bilge 12 hours before and every thing was dry after ...




Does any body have an idea what could happen .... 


Have you verified this little opening of that bilge under your shower/wc ????  Just to be sure that I am not alone with a problem like that .... :-(

They told me that they have to different systems ....
The one that I actually have and an other one .... the one that I have seems to be crap :-)

Concerning the water gauges, they fixed it by recalibrating them ( last time I was complaining about and since then, it works fine ) but we also thought about installing a water maker. The fact that I have to clean it so often is still a problem that I have to solve first ... because normally we are on board every 5-6 Weeks for at least one or two weeks ... but I am sure that I'll invest money next year in one. First I have to install the Davids ( after this trip ).

You are right, It would come handy to know how full the holding tank is ... I saw an indicator for only a few euros :-)
I cut a plastic cup into a funnel and ty wrapped it around the condenser unit. The intent is to catch the water that drips off the unit while in the cool or dehumidify mode. Currently the ice melt misses the catch pan and runs into the bilge ahead of the main sump. I haven't done a test on it yet but expect it to help.

Had the same problem on my B43. I had a leak coming from the mixer valve on the transom. I fixed this easily by tightening the hose. Took me much longer to find the leak! Also had a leak from the aft shower sump that leaked fresh water into the sump. Needed to be competely rebeded. I still have a small amount of fresh water (less than 200 mil or half a cup in the sump and gather that this may come whenever the shower is used -some may run down the shower hose to the inside.

I still have poor readings from my water tanks and fuel tank guages.
