PumpH20 Posted September 14, 2020 Report Share Posted September 14, 2020 Just curious how you guys dock your boat overnight at a lake. I have a 2018 B 52 23. Does the bilge come on by itself overnight? Does the battery need to be on or off? And any other tips you guys may have. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtryon Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 ideally you want the battery switch off but the bilge pump wired directly to a battery so that it's the only thing still on. on a 2018 i would think that's the stock setup, but hopefully someone else can confirm.

Tbag Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 The bilge pump has a test button on it. Turn everything off and press the test button to be certain it still has power. TR711 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeTJ Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 Unless your boat was wired wrong from the factory, the bilge will still work with the battery switches turned off. Your boat will be fine. TR711 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
