Mine works that way -- but it's connected through a fuse block that is then
connected through a protected cable to the house battery positive bus bar
(rather than connecting straight to the battery). It will work regardless of
the house bank battery switch's state (On or Off).

I agree it makes sense, but I find it remarkable that there is no capacity
requirement for the electric pump. BTW, its 70 degrees out. What the hell am

IMHO every boat needs at least two bilge pumps in addition to the manual one.
You have the "routine" pumps at the low spots and the biggest one you can
afford/fit for emergencies. It does not need to be at a low point - just low
enough to do some good. 500 GPH pumps fit between my keel bolts and

Yes, I knew the fuze was required. The float switch requires a 3 amp fuze,
which is what I have used. I have tried bumping it to a 4 amp fuze on two
occasions.
Fred,

Absolutely DO NOT wire ANYTHING to the battery without the properly-sized fuse
(or other over-current protection device) in the line, as close to the battery
as possible!!! Unless you want your boat to burn to the waterline someday.
This is especially true of anything with a motor in it, like
Pat,
The switch should be hard wired to the battery w/o a fuse??
Any luck with the buyer?

Looks like a great solution, but at 8 3/4 inches long it is too long for
the sump in my 29-2. I have had a nagging problem with my float switch for
a while. The main bilge pump works fine when switched on from the breaker
panel. When the water level reaches the float switch, it will activate the

If anyone else has one working I'd be interested if it was an OK choice!

The bilge pump on my 35/3 is under the forward dinette seat. A hose
leads to a strainer in the forward sump just behind the mast. I'd
like to replace it with a higher volume pump, but I can't find one
that will fit in the bilge compartment next to the keel bolt without
spending ridiculous amounts
