I have a 1200 & a 800 GPH pumps in the basement, they are brand new and been there 5 years at least!!

I have taken bad waves over the back in the rips!! Just pull out the old hand pump, works every time!!

Just a few weeks ago I hit a rock and the whole boat listed to one side and all almost went over board!!

Just a little water and did not bother with trying to get it out.
I have since repaired all damage and repainted the whole bottom.

Still NO pumps in the boat!

I use the removable 24" pole light. The CG has boarded me twice...looking for illegals in the cuddy. First time I kept my mouth shut and let'm do their job. Second time I was a lil'POed...(same CG crew) I told'm if they came across any elsewhere I'd like to buy two for yardwork. They didn't laugh. :-[

The smaller your boat, the bigger your bilge pump. I run a Rule 1500.
