Moving in line Check-Valve in Bilge Pump
In our catalina 350 mkII an in line check valve was installed at the outlet of the bilge pump. We have had problems with the pump being able to pump bilge water out of the boat. After reading several articles and talking to the local distributor we decided to move the check valve to a different location in the bilge system. We chose to move it to close to the output of the bilge, which we accessed at the starboard stern of the boat (above) Installation of the check valve was simple (black component in the white tube and now the system works flawlessly (fingers crossed).
