This happened to me, same boat, same year and the culprit was a bad fresh water pump. A seal inside the pump had gone and it was leaking pretty good when it ran. Water would run into the forward bilge, and then when you get on plane the water will slosh and trigger the alarm. Good news is the pumps are pretty cheap and easy to replace. Newer model pumps are a little louder than the original.The more pressing issue i have yet to investigate and could use some insights on, is while underway my forward bilge would turn on every 20 minutes or so when on plane. Before i put my inspector glasses on i figured i would check in with you guys to see if anyone else has had this happen and if there is a commonality on the culprit?? Again it only seems to happen when underway/on plane. Although i suppose it could be happening while not moving and i have just yet to realize it.
This will be next weekends project to chase down...
