I have a 26’. The pump works but I have found that a long manual pump placed in the bilge itself with the outflow hose pointed into a nearby 5-gallon bucket was less (pumping) work and quicker. Having said that, hauling a five-gallon bucket (repeatedly) up the steps in order to dump it into the cockpit provides some serious weight lifting exercise. Plus, there is the imperative to not to slosh any of the brown water with dead wasps onto the galley area while ascending the ladder with the bucket.
Accordingly, choose your preferred form of exercise: outside repetitive arm movement or inside lower-back weight lifting. Steve Staten “C’ Est La Vie” C&C 26’ Langley, Oklahoma
