Bilge<BR><BR></DIV></FONT>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Upon putting my recently acquired A30 up for
the winter I removed the batteries from the bilge. The batteries sit
on the first level and then there is a hole chopped in the floor through
what seems like a soft fiberglass material. Below that is the actual
bilge (I guess) and a bilge pump. Is that soft material rotten
fiberglass or what? Any ideas?</FONT></DIV>
