One run of hose connecting two pumps in series? A separate hose for each bilge pump would be more usual and a better arrangement. For example, what happens if the bellows on one of the pumps cracks? Then you have no working bilge pumps. Plus it adds a restriction where you really might not want one.
I've got two manual pumps, separate hose runs and 2 thru-hulls. Graham Collins Secret Plans C&C 35-III #11 On 2018-05-01 9:44 PM, Wade Glew via CnC-List wrote: I wondered about that. However, the large vinyl hose with metal coil reinforcement seems more like a manual pump hose size. Perhaps the two manual pumps had separate hoses and thru hulls at some point?

As well as the electric bilge pump I have the usual Manual bilge pump in the cockpit. In addition, there is another manual bilge pump in the cabin mounted under the Port side settee along the forward bulkhead. This cabin bulge pump hose runs to the cockpit bilge pump which then discharges to a through hull just under the transom. The curious part is that there are two thru hulls, side by side under the transom. The second thru hull has a bilge hose which runs forward and dead ends in the bilge with no pump or fittings between the ends. No other 33 MK II in my harbour has this second through hull or "dead end" hose. Does anyone know why this hose is present? many thanks, Wade _______________________________________________ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions.
