    Where and how to get to forward bilge pump on 1989 2955 Avanti-gctid808943

    Hello, I purchased a 1989 2955 Avanti last fall and I launched her last weekend. I hear and can see the rear bilge pump working but cannot find the excess hatch for the forward bilge pump. There is a new switch on the dash for it. Just like little piece of mind knowing it works. If someone can point me in the right direction that be great.

    Thxs.

        I have the same boat and there is no forward bilge pump that I am aware of. I believe it may have been an option and would have been in the compartment under the vberth.

          Car 2, you should consider putting one if there isn't one.

          All these FWD bilge should be sealed...no where for all that water to go.

            I took the switch panel off and there is 2 wires hooked to the forward bilge pump so I imagine there us a front bilge pump. I couldn't see Bayliner not putting one in or it being an option on such a big boat. My last boat 2655 had one and could be accessed from the aft bedroom floor.

              There is a pump in the aft bedroom on the starboard side in a compartment but that is the shower pump as far as I know.

              I've never seen any other pumps anywhere. Not bilge type.

                If anyone could ever come across a manual specific to the 2955 Avanti,,, it would be helpful.

                I've never found one.

                  Bayliner.com was good enough to send me an owner manual. I'll upload it has the wiring schematics also, includes a few different models, might help some other members. Yes there are 2 bilge pumps.looks like I can't upload it, it's a pdf file sorry.

                    If you would send a copy to me that would be appreciated very much.

                    Thanks

                      Hope the copy helped. Found the forward bilge pump, the access is located near the middle of the rear wall in the aft cabin down by the mattress. Not much access room it be a real pain to change the bilge pump if you had to.
