Was cleaning out the bilge, and found a piece of carpet under the bilge float, holding it up. Looks intentional as it matches the carpet on the boat, and I bought it new. Any reason that should be there?
99.999% not intentional. Small pieces of fiberglass carpet screws rivets etc that was missed during the clean up after built. Some of the pieces become inaccessible during and just after production.
Don’t get me wrong – I’m not claiming there was malicious intent, and am not angry by any stretch. I just wondered if that was technique in final testing or something of that nature. It was a folded piece of carpet that sat 3 inches round directly under the float. There is very little room for things to move around on the bottom – I found lots of pieces and bits when I first got the boat, so I know it happens. This just seemed different. Not a big deal. What it was doing was causing my bilge pump to run even in auto with no water in the bilge.
