Installing water witch bilge switches, and a high water alarm. I have both forward and aft bilge pumps in my 2520XL.
It seems that most have installed the high water alarm in the aft bilge, but my forward bilge is the only one that ever has water in it. Given that, wouldn't it make sense to put the high water alarm sensor in the forward bilge? I can understand that the water is likely to gather in the aft bilge when underway, but when I overnight, and when I tuna fish, I spend hours on the hook. Am I missing something? What is the right decision?
Obviously hoping that it never goes off in either location....
