BEB: BII Hand Pump

BLUF:  Use BII hand pump to remove water from the BEB’s hull and prevent electrical problems
  Operators, check the bridge boat’s hull for water before beginning operations.    
       
Water can seep in the hull from rainwater and cracks in the hull. That can cause electronics located inside the hull to short out.
