Wakeboat fluid housing compartment fluid level sensing assemblies are provided. The assemblies can include: a wakeboat having a hull; a fluid housing compartment associated with the hull; a nonconductive sensor chamber positioned within the fluid housing compartment of the hull; and at least a pair of conductive electrodes associated with the sensor chamber, at least one of the pair of conductive electrodes being positioned within the nonconductive sensor chamber and electrically isolated from fluid within the fluid housing compartment. Methods for sensing a fluid level within a fluid housing compartment aboard a wakeboat are also provided. The methods can include: maintaining fluid communication between the fluid level within the fluid housing compartment and a sensor chamber; and determining the electrical communication between at least a pair of electrodes operatively associated with the sensor chamber.

The present disclosure provides power source assemblies aboard a watercraft. The power source assemblies can include: an engine having a crankshaft; a variable ratio drive assembly operably engaged with the crankshaft; and an engine powered accessory operably engaged with the variable ratio drive assembly. The present disclosure also provides methods for distributing power aboard a watercraft from a crankshaft of an engine. The methods can include: using a crankshaft of an engine to drive a variable ratio drive assembly; and using the variable ratio drive assembly to drive an engine accessory over a narrower RPM range while operating the crankshaft over a wider RPM range.
