Comment on Boat Cats by Jutta Aurahs

Hello from Germany again,
some years ago, Diesel was still a cute kitten, we published his first adventures as a boat cat in our magazine “Geliebte Katze” (all about cats). I’m still at my editor-desk and I very much would like to know how he and you are doing. I would be pleased if you find the time to tell me.
kind regards

Phyllis, you should probably call Dan directly as I’m unsure if he will check in here regularly.

Congrats!

We have a primary pump in the bottom of the bilge well, and a secondary pump whose float is about 18″ above the first, which kicks in under emergency situations. We use magnetic, not paddle floats, as they’re more reliable and shouldn’t get jammed. The pumps empty via different through-hulls as well, just in case one should get plugged.

If you haven’t already, I suggest joining the Yahoo group as there are plenty of members with 458s there who might provide additional suggestions.

Just purchased a Liberty 1986. Noticed you replaced 2 bilge pumps (refit). We need to put a second bilge pump for high water but bilge area seems tight. Any ideas?

I think you’d have to consult a surveyor.

We sort of “assumed” ours were OK. Mostly by walking around and not feeling any squishiness or flexing underfoot. To completely assure yourselves of no core damage, you’d have to consult a surveyor.

What we’ve found is that the area around the deck prisms is the most prone to leakage, and when we resealed those we dug out some balsa and replaced with epoxy.
