Default Re: Bilge pump mounting

MJs suggestion about mounting the pump high is a good one...mount the float-switch high too in that case or it'll keep the pump on after it's dry...


I didn't go quite that high, but I 5200'ed a thick rubber pad directly to the bottom of the bilge, then used screws to mount switch and pump to the rubber...all held well for 6 years, but now I gotta do some maintenance on 'em ;) ... heck 6 years, I might just replace everything... :D ...
