New Anchor Wash-down Pump Operating Procedure

It appears the water being trapped on the outboard side of the port engine bed was coming from some loose fittings in the potable water line. The water heater sits on a little platform in the engine room.

It appears that the bilge pump hoses used to be routed under this platform. For some reason the hoses are now routed awkwardly next to the water heater. Need to reroute them under the platform.

Successfully tested the newly plumbed anchor wash down system. Changing the operating procedures to leave the wash down's thru-hull, which is located next to the engine's raw water thru-hull closed. It will need to be opened before using the wash down pump.
