Hi Patrick,
Get something like this:
http://www.defender.com/product3.jsp?path=-1|51|2234226|2234227&id=1207040
and put it to the sink drain or cockpit drain if you don't want a
dedicated outboard discharge. The discharge head will be fine.
Obviously for either choice the connection must be well above
waterline level AND should include a pump discharge loop. (to account
for heeled situatons)
Some on the list may whine that it won't pass normal survey standards
but for your application it will be fine. They don't understand rain
like we do. :)
Cheers, Russ

Water is coming into my bilge this winter much faster than before,
luckily it is sweet and I'm going to be looking for ways to locate
and seal the leaks. Since that will take time I want to install a
bilge pump. My interim plan will be to have it pump into the sink,
does anyone know if the hydrostatic head will be too high for the
small size of pump that will fit in my bilge? Thanks in advance.
