Hi Eric!
Hope I'll be seeing around the harbor soon!
I used one of the small Whale pumps in my sump. Nice little unit going
on season 3

The automatic bilge pump in Cat’s Paw is fairly old (2011) and
although it still works fine, it requires a separate float switch
(also old) which is located in a shallower part of the bilge so leaves
about 4 inches of water at the pump when it turns off. I am looking
for a replacement that has the water level switch in the pump. There
are lots of these for sale, but what is the list’s recommendation?
The old pump is a Shurflo (sp?) 355-100-00, rated at 1000 gals/hr
<http://gals.hr/>, - the label says it draws 7.35 amps (but I haven’t
measured it). Is Shurflo even made any more? I see Rule pumps and
lots of brands I have never heard of on line. The automatic pumps I
found online leave about 2 inches of water - is that the best we can
do? And what pumps last well? Advice welcome.
