I purchased this three weeks ago, was a trade at a dealer 2 1/2 hours away. Been out x3 last week a tournament and had pump issues ended up the starboard side pump went out. Picked up two Rule 800 GPH to replace the 500's. Went to install last night and at this moment everything operating as is should.
Question is I realize it's a one owner boat was originally purchased in 2018 but does Skeeter rat's nest all the accessory wires at the lowest point in the bilge? All four pumps, oxygenator, Rigid livewell lighting and whatever else is/was all wound together in the bilge and all the splices were male/female plug splices, not heat shrunk that's about 18-20 splices there. When I spliced in the pumps they were all corroded so replaced both ends. I'm sure all the others are the same. I'll attempt to replace them all and raise them up one way or another but is this normal for Skeeter? It's only a matter of time before other accessories start failing.
