Hi Guys,
My cousin is letting me use his 2005 270 sundeck. I have it in the water behind my house. I delivered the boat to my house a couple days ago. I took it out and drove it around for a couple hours. It now has been sitting for 2 days, I went to use it today and noticed the water isn't draining out of the engine box bilge. It rained here today and there is probably 10-14 inches of water in the engine compartment. If the engine is started the belts fling the water around. I am guessing this isn't normal and wasn't like this when I got the boat.
Is this normal? If not, is it the bilge pump? I could't really see where the pump was located because the water coverering it and it's pretty tight in there. Can anyone give me some advice? I am an experienced boater, but don't know much about Inboard/outboard motors or Sea Rays.
Thanks
