We were coming back in from a day of fishing, so I was going to dump the bait tank. I disconnected the pump from the battery, then opened the drain valve. We started to motor back to the Harbor at about 20 mph.
I drained the tank about half way, close the drain valve and sit down to enjoy the ride back. Soon I see water coming out the over flow drain hose.
How can this be? There's no power to the bait pump.The pickup/iintake pipe that was cut on an angel was scooping up water.
From the back of the boat to the bait tank is 15 feet of garden hose. It was almost as if I had the pump on again.
