Re: bilge pump

I?m guessing the ?holes with the flap? are scuppers. Do they look like this?

One-way valves usually in a splashwell to drain water.

I?d contact Glassmaster directly about a manual. If they cannot help, I doubt you?ll find one.

Bilge pump will be at the lowest level of the hull right near the stern. Should be able to access the area through an opening or a hatch. Once you find it, replacement is relatively straight forward.

Re: bilge pump

To locate the bilge pump, follow the drain line from the overboard fitting in the hull.
