I'd keep a very snug cover on if you're gonna moore it for an extended
period. Moisture in the air is a boat's worst enemy.

As for the bilge pump, while there's no way to guarantee it will work,
there
are a few steps you can take to up the odds. Keep your bilge area free of
debris such as leaves, trach & (in my case) used soft-plastics. Charge
your
batteries immediatewly after each trip. And test the bilge pump
frequently.

You couldn't pay me to keep my boat outside, but I realize some are forced
to.

Donb't forget to take steps to keep feathered friends from landing on your
cover too...

Anyone keep their bass boat in a slip? Just wondering if you do if you
use a regular mooring cover or did you order a special "snap" cover to
keep out the elements. Also, I would appreciate any advice on what is
the absolute best way to insure that the bilge pump will work in my
absence, while boat is in the slip. I know accidents may happen.
Thanks very much. This is the best bass NG I have found.



two bildge pumps minimum. What I run on my boat anyways. Installed a 2000
gph pump as a backup to the 1500 gpm pump. That way if one fails I have
pump until dead battery.
