I am looking for some help here. I am hooking up my livewell pump and keep blowing the breaker. The pump had been disconnected by the previous owner and I am reconnecting it. If I take the pump up to the console(with about 6 inch wire leads) and run it using the breaker and the same ground location as before I have no problems. But when I hook it up in the back with one wire going to the same ground and one wire going to the breaker, it blows the breaker. I just ran the wire so it shouldnt be damaged. Could it be the the 10 feet of wire is causing a larger load and blowing the breaker? I also swapped breakers with the bilge and it would blow that one too. I checked the impeller and it isnt clogged either. Somebody help please
Was at the Shagawa lake boat launch and these two ducks came right up to me. I think someone has been feeding them.
I also noticed that one of them has an eye that is partially shut.
I appreciate that. I actually stopped last night but I didnt get back to town til 5:45 and you were closed. Were open when I went by to bring the girls to school this morning so I grabbed eight packs. Probably be way to many dont remember them being so big.
