[alberg30] Bilge Blower

[Alan P. Kefauver]

You can get a replacement bilgeblower that is like the old one at Fawcetts in Annapolis. I'll look up the number on mine (was replaced) and send it to you. Yeah, the brown lamp cord is original I am told. A cost cutting measure. I replaced all of mine just recently.
