    Exceeding recommended hp

    It is possible that the google info is wrong on the weights. Regardless I was more interested in the over power information. In the process I learned that weight is more important than the power. So will look for the lowest weight motors and make final decision. Thanks all and Merry Christmas

    Wallace 85ndt heater

    Just replaced my old 85 with a new one. Nothing wrong with the old one. Never had an issue. It was just 17 years old. Are the older ones worth anything? Hate to throw it away.

    I did the same thing. However mine continued to leak from somewhere so I got fed up and bought the dry bilge system from its creator in Canada. Now they are selling the system on Amazon. The price was over $400 now they are $395 on Amazon. Have not had water in bilge since. Best thing I ever did...
