Bilge blower

Postby mitchellp » April 23rd, 2021, 6:33 am

HI
I have a 1989 3807 Aft boat. When I turn on my bilge blower I get a high squeaky squeal, so I presume the blower is going bad. I don't have access to the boat and stupid me forgot to check. Do I have individual blowers at the end of each of the duct work or do I have a single unit.

Thanks,
Mitch

Mine has in-line units, one port and one starboard. I just can't remember the size but probably 4". I can check next week.

PS, they are mounted on top of the outer stringers behind the engines, with a length of duct hose from the intake side leading further down to the bottom of the stringers.
