Manual Bilge Pumps,
Funny but I haven't seen as many as I used to, the typical bulkhead/deck mounted Whale Gusher or whatnot.
I was thinking about mounting one in my keel just to have. I hate that feeling of having an electrical one fail and have water in there. Of course I actually have two mounted in my keel and then two at the deck above.
On those "gusher" style pumps, do they just have a course screen installed to remove the larger pieces as they pass the smaller pieces?
Anyone ever use a "water witch" switch for turning on an above mounted diaphragm style pump? I know I saw some postings before of those and shower sump pumps but they still looked to be on rule type float switches.
Just sitting here doing some thinking, I just want my bilges to be BULLET proof.
