Tip #1 for Living on a Houseboat is to have a "dual" redundant bilge pump system. It doesn't take much to "jam" a bilge pump and blow the fuse, and the effects can be devastating.

I guess Tip #2 would be to check that your properly insured...

Check those bilge pumps to see that they will work when needed.
