Johnson Pumps integrated pump and electronic sensor 32-47260-003 1000 GPH Ultima Bilge Pump, 12V, works good for me now. The bilge on my centerboard boat is quite shallow and there is no room for a switch at the same level as the pump resulting in more than necessary residual water level if

Interesting story when we first got Astralis.  After going through the boat what I thought was pretty well prior to moving the boat, we took off one morning to start the 120 mile trip.  After a few minutes getting outside the harbor, I had one of my friends take the helm.  I went down below

Re: Stus-List Bilge pump question - switch recommendation

My choice for bilge pump switches is one of the Ultra Safety Systems switches. Fairly bombproof. The other advantage is you don't have to make the "Y" connection on the positive wires from the "Manual" side of the control switch and the float switch. That connection is made inside the switch.

I second the idea of redundant bilge pumps and I have installed both a 300 gph diaphragm with a water witch mounted as low as I could get it to suck water reliably in addition to the a 1500 centrifuge pump with a mechanical float switch that came with the boat. The centrifugal pump float switch
