Thanks for the suggestions. I think the 2nd point is a good one. I never thought about the water in the bildge moving. I think the pump is foreward of the engine.

I don't have ballasts, so it can't be coming from there.
I don't think it's coming from below as the bilge pump works fine and it would really have to be a lot of water to fill the engine center... -

I get a shudder some times when I am just starting off, but I have attributed it to some weeds on the prop/ rudder, once I get going it seems to be fine.
The lake I am on is pretty weedy in places. -

Cover is great.
Well we have had the cover for about 2 weeks and a lot of rain.
But the inside has been dry. The cover cost about $700 in total - bow and cockpit cover.
We're happy with the decision so far. -

I'm on walled lake and as nice as it would be to have it at home, access and parking would be the issue.
I think it's a great idea. Keep us informed.
Now we just need some warm weather. -

Check the fluid level in the reservoir. If it doesn't have enough fluid, the pump will not be able to generate enough pressure to overcome the return spring - default position is up.
