Re: First boat - returning to NJ.com
As to the Bilge Pump. Get the largest GPH pump you can pfit. I use a 2000 GPH.
Small boats sink MUCH faster and you want the pump to empty quickly.
I have the pump directly in front of the drain plug. I cut out the false deck floor so it lays directly on the aluminum. I do not have an override switch as I have no place to mount the switch. I have just the a float switch. A compact box type. Not the floating arm switch. The floating arm type switch takes too much room in a cramped area.
Help some?
