    Air conditioning

    I ran the air on out 87 340 last night. Cooled everything down nicely. I noticed that my flow overboard isn’t as strong as some of the other boats on the dock. Sea strainer is clean. Anything I should check or am I being a lunatic?

    Water in under floor hold.

    I had some water in the hold in the picture below. There are 2 hoses on the port side of the hold. I assume they are from the water tank. Didn’t see any obvious leaks in them. Has anyone had a similar issue, and can anyone confirm the hoses are from the holding tank? Thank you.
