Here We Go Again

One last patch of snow across the street

@skennelly , definitely sounds like an impellor issue (or pump itself).  I see it happen often on my dock with all the boats on lifts. At some point or another, if the impellor hasn't been changed, or if the plate inside the pump is worn (grooved), it won't prime and pull water in.  Hopefully you didn't burn the flappers in the exhaust. I did this a couple years ago and had to replace those too.  Either way, it's early in the season and should be an easy fix!  Let us know how it goes!

Here's what I found today.

Yep, good reason to just change it out every other year.  I did mine last spring, but going to change my genny one this week.  It's a lot easier than trying to find all the pieces.

70? We hit 85° and sunny in Charleston yesterday, but only 70° today. If these **** winds would calm some it would be really great boating weather!

We had snow and sleet yesterday and this dude is complaining about wind in the 70s... Sigh!
