[Amel Yacht Owners] Water Tank Overflow

Kent, I suspect the top of the floating gauge. I have had water bubble out of there when I accidently overfill. On BeBe, 387, it will accumlate in the bilge below the companionway steps. Bill Rouse

I looked there, Bill. No evidence of water coming out there. Thing is, I've always filled it to just below 1000L with no oroblems until now. At 1000L on the gauge, there was still a couple of inches of air at the top of the middle tank. The float still moves freely, but I wonder if it's lost bouyancy somehow? Most likely suspect is, as Joel (my hero and mentor) suggested, one of the inspection hatches. I'll investigate further tomorrow. Kent SM 243
