Is It Normal to Have Water in Your Boat’s Bilge? BILGE-B-DRY Dry Bilge System removes residual moisture to keep your bilge completely dry!

Is It Normal to Have Water in Your Boat’s Bilge? BILGE-B-DRY Dry Bilge System removes residual moisture to keep your bilge completely dry!

Ideally, water in your boat’s bilge should be kept to a minimum. Small amounts of water can enter a boat’s bilge from rain, ocean spray, heavy washdown or minor leaks.  If you notice excessive water accumulation, it could indicate an issue like a leaking hose, hull damage, or failing seals.

A dry bilge is preferable because standing water can lead to mold, mildew, and even corrosion over time. That’s why solutions like BILGE-B-DRY exist—to continuously remove residual moisture and keep your bilge completely dry.

Keeping your boat’s bilge dry is crucial for maintaining its longevity and overall condition. Here’s why:

  • Prevents corrosion and rust – Standing water can lead to metal components corroding and weakening over time.
  • Reduces mold and mildew growth – A damp bilge creates the perfect environment for bacteria, mold, and mildew, which can result in unpleasant odors and health issues.
  • Protects electrical systems – Many boats have electrical wiring running through the bilge and excess moisture can cause malfunctions, shorts, or even serious electrical damage.
  • Improves overall maintenance – A dry bilge allows you to easily inspect for leaks, damage, or mechanical issues without water hiding potential problems.
  • Increases boat longevity – By keeping moisture out, you extend the lifespan of your boat and avoid costly repairs down the road.

A dry bilge isn’t just about cleanliness—it’s about ensuring your boat remains in top shape for years to come. BILGE-B-DRY Dry Bilge System offers several advantages for keeping your boat’s bilge dry and free from unwanted water accumulation:

  • Smart technology: BILGE-B-DRY is the only dry bilge system with smartphone connectivity, allowing you to program how often the pump runs.  You can also choose to run BILGE-B-DRY with an automatic water sensor, helm switch, or allow the pump to run on its own internal schedule.
  • Compact and easy installation: Designed for tight spaces, BILGE-B-DRY requires no special tools for setup.
  • Low maintenance: You infrequently need to replace the low-profile water pickups, or you can choose to purchase replacement filter material at an affordable cost.
  • Environmentally friendly: BILGE-B-DRY features a proprietary filter system that helps keep your bilge clean.
  • Prevents mold and corrosion: A dry bilge reduces bacteria, mold, and mildew growth while preventing rust and corrosion.
  • Cost-Effective: BILGE-B-DRY is one of the most affordable smart dry bilge systems available.
  • Reliable water removal: Unlike traditional bilge pumps that leave residual moisture, BILGE-B-DRY continuously extracts small amounts of water to ensure a completely dry bilge.
