Corrosion is precisely the reason my Whale manual bilge pump is working so
poorly. In the 9 years I have owned Cats Paw, I have replaced the rubber
flapper valves 3 times - most recently last year. But this no longer solves
the corrosion problem of the metal pump, which keeps the flapper valve
We have Whale pumps for our holding tanks. When they fail, it really
stinks!

Dennis,
Honey has 2 of these same pumps. We dismantle and check them every year in
January. These pumps and tested with fresh water only and we still find the
corrosion issue mentioned below. They are coated and returned to the galley

If any lister has an alloy (metal) body Whale or other brand manual bilge
pump, I *STRONGLY* suggest you disassemble it and inspect the sealing
surfaces. These pumps, particularly when in salt or brackish water
service, are subject to corrosion and pitting. If the corrosion is s

My CC 35 II (1974) also has a manual (Whale) bilge pump in the cockpit, and I
notice that sometimes I have to pump very hard to suck the water from the bilge
up to the pump so it starts pumping. Presumably there is some leakage of water
past the intake valve with just air in the system - at tim

I can see some almost neurotic logic to having two large manual pumps –
redundancy if one fails or just having a lot of capacity in case you really
need to dewater in an emergency. (I actually have a Whale Gusher in the garage

Thanks for your thoughts B
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 w

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?

The PO probably had an extra electric bilge pump which has since been removed.
