Is it possible you have a diaphragm pump? If that is the case the pump is not in the bilge and higher ... follow the hose and you would find the pump. Mine is in the cupboard beneath head sink.

Demore Subject: Stus-List 73 30 MK1 Bilge Pump While we're having so many conversations on bilge pumps, I have another question for you. I picked up a project '73 30' MK 1. There is a float switch in the bilge, right under the forward access hole. There are wires leading forward through the bilge toward the mast, as well as a hose that leads out of the bilge, around the head, up the wall by the holding tank, and out through a drain at the top of the hull (I had assumed it to be a vent previously). I have reached up through the bilge as far as I can, put a camera in there and took some pictures, used a mirror and flashlight, everything I could think of (I don't have a borescope), but I can't find the pump or the end of the hose/wires. Does anybody know how to access the pump and whether it is screwed down? It almost has to be forward of the mast, but I can't reach it. I don't want to pull too hard on the hose, but I need to find the pump and see what kind of shape it is in. Any ideas? Thanks, Steve
