I replaced my live well pump last night, its all plastic and the water lines are rubber, it connects to a brass fitting that goes through the hull for the water pick-up. My boat is fiberglass. For some reason the boat manufacturer has attached a ground wire to the brass fitting. Anybody have an idea why they did this?
Also if people remember I replaced my alpha1 out drive last spring with a generic SEI drive for $1500 it took 10 minutes to install and has a 3 year no questions asked warranty. So far so good over 300 hours on it last season and it is running fine, no problems.
