Would love to know a little more if you can find out without too much trouble.
I'm wondering if he worked with a Nav Arch to make the modification. I noticed
that he doesn't mention the mod in the ad, so maybe it was done by a prior

Colin,
I agree, to a point. I would definitely agree in the case of a centrifugal
bilge pump. They don't develop much head and hose run and restrictions can
greatly affect output. However, Tom stated his pump is a Jabsco 36970-1000.
It's a diaphragm pump, rated at 3.4 gpm at 20 psi. I susp
Dennis,
Testing a pump against its rated capacity is pretty much a losing game
because the ratings assume virtually no rise above the pump and they
also assume full voltage at the pump.
In most configurations, you'll have a long-ish hose run to get the

Well if it comes to racing then I can see needing a 150 but if that is the
case then you are not really planing on a cruising sail after all. A sail
change is much easier with a full crew. I assumed that if you were looking
for a furling sail that it was for cruising.

It's true. The 135 I have is very sufficient. And anything bigger in over 10

Get a vacuflush and keep/fix the freshwater tank. Much better bang for the
buck. Vacuflush will effectively make your holding tank 8x larger. It

Do you have a roller furler? IMHO, a furler is the absolute best option for
cruising. I'd pop for a furler over a smaller sail any time. Add a tape drive
