I believe I cannot replace the water pump switch alone. It is one of several mounted on the "switchpad" located on the helm. The push button works fine but the green light will not shut off.

Yes, the freshwater pump. As I said, the switch works, but the light stays on even when the pump is off. I thought it might be a diode for that one particular light.

Nice trip. We spent the day off Point Judith.

Butane canisters are available at Benny's.

I've been back in the water for 2 weeks. I'm there almost every day. You are RIGHT next door! Give me a yell and we'll swap tales. I'd like to see your boat. Pete

My wife is getting the Queen size 4 inch memeory foam from Walmart for 99 bucks. She'll roll it up and store it when not in use.

I am installing a wired ISimple FM modulator which will play and charge the IPOD. The head unit is the XMD1 which does not have an aux input. My question is: can I simply splice into the 12v and ground wires of the wiring harness attached to the head unit to supply the power and ground? If yes...
