Hello, I need some help trying to figure out how to fix this issue I have in my bilge. It seems like there is water seeping from beneath the bilge through fiberglass. How do I solve the issue? I want to fix it before it gets worse. Here are some picture for reference:
Hello everyone, I started this thread in a different section, but I want to post it here since its more specific.

Hello everyone, I have an 88 sun runner weekender and lately it has been building up with mold/ mildew all along the stern of the boat. I already cleaned it up once with bleach, but it's back again. What is causing the growth and how do I stop it? Thanks in advance.
I am having the same issues again. I got the tilt motor to work some time ago and I went to test it today and nothing. All I heard was the relays clicking but no movement. Also, I seem to be getting some grounding somewhere because when I give the yellow/green wire power is sparks and gets hot...
I connected the 280 Volvo tilt mechanism today and I find that it doesn't go up or down when I use the switch. I decided to test motor directly and it turns just fine both ways. I tried testing the other cables directly and I only hear relays clicking but no movement. Help me test this properly...
Hello, I am trying to reconnect the tilt mechanism to the volvo penta throttle shif control however I don't know what the correct connection is like. It's an aq271c with 280 outdrive.
I went to install the bilge blower hose on the vent the other day and couldn't figure out to keep it positioned in the vent hole without falling. Is there a tape or other method of keeping it in place in the vent?

I am still debating where and how to instal my bilge pumps. I have a stern drive so I plan to put one very close to the transom which is the lowest point. But the other pumps I am unsure how to install them. The bilge area is kind of a "V" shape and then has the walls on the side. What is a good...
I am finally installing bilge pumps in my 24ft sunrunner. I currently have a 1500gph pump and I know I need more. I was thinking of using a 2000gph in conjunction with the 1500gph as sencondary pumps. Does it matter if I use 2 pumps or 1 big pump? I am planning on using a 600gph pump as primary.
I am in the process of installing 2 bilge blowers in my 88' Sunrunner Weekender and I would like some advice on the proper way of doing it. I am confused about a few things such as, exhaust vents and intake. What is the proper routing of the hose,etc?
I decided on 2 blowers for more protection...
I want to make sure I wire my alternator properly. Can someone please remind me how it is wired. It is for an AQ271c with a 280 outdrive. I would like to finish this on the weekend.
Thanks
