dinna jump all over me for this may well be worth putting the hose pipe IN the vessel for a while and see what happens

and yes my goodness how right you are about mistakes

the man that never made a mistake never made owt

and well done for having the henry halls to post your over sight,it may make some other folks do a double/treble check before they launch

in fact you have probably filled every blighter with paranoia

What's happened is bungs been left out the well has filled and the well must have been fibreglassed by a blind man on a galloping horse! So what's happens is it filled the hull! Going re fibreglass well, fitting hand bilge for the hull and leaving an electric pump with float in well and remember to keep the plug in!!

Got told was wilson flyer when bought it but got told another load of lies aswell so Havnt a clue really, I've put a lot of money and work in to her over the winter to get her like she is now but itl b worth it when out there fishing

[codseeker]

your not alone ,ive left the bung plug out a few times ,lucky its been while launching and not out at sea

[lingking]

electric bilge good idea,but dont rely on it,they cheap as chips have spare yin if you can

[Chris-scott]

It's mainly for the rain water to pump out of well with solar trickle charge but we live in England we don't get much rain lol

We hired a dinghy 3 years ago at Gareloch Head. After a couple of hours it seemed to be letting in water so I started bailing the water out. Then I spotted the bung wasn't in the hole! Must have worked its way out and I probably bailed it over the side! Started engine and headed straight for shore, Lynn at the helm, me on the bailing. Only just made it, shin deep in water. Called the guy we hired it from, as we were about 4 miles by road from him. He said "Go into the Ardentinny Hotel and ask for a few wine corks" and promptly hung up!!

We have never hired a dinghy again!!

So I will bring a few corks when we come down Chris - just in case!
