A friend of mine 1979 28' Uniflite Mega that he has in a slip at the Berkley Marina. He recently related a sad story of a sinking boat in the marina. Thankfully it was not his boat.
He says:
I can't say I didn't get a little choked up when I saw it as this is a reminder to all boaters who keep their vessels in the water to be vigilant about the proper functioning off all bilge pumps, float switches, batteries, battery chargers and shore power connection.
Here is his Uniflite Log Blog.
And here was his original post: Sinking Boat in Berkeley Marina
