On Pegasus I have a1000gph pump and an electronic switch, no moving parts to
clog. I strapped it to the pump discharge hose, adjusted to get maximum water
from bilge. Been working great do 2 years so far.

Stus-List Automatic Bilge Pump? Recommendations?
Sorry Josh, in retrospect I misspoke, the deep sump is, in fact aft of the
mast, and not forward of it.
The same question applies though - do you think there is room in there for both
a pump and separate float switch? It seemed a little tight to me, but I'm new
to the boat and the existing pump was mounted to a makeshift stainless steel
bracket.
Thanks for the input!

Mine has limber holes that allow all the water to accumulate in the deep sump
located about 2 ft aft of the mast.

Hello all,
We have a deep, but small bilge just forward of the mast on our CYC 37/40+, and
I need to replace the bilge pump. It had a Rule 1100 GPH automatic pump
(rather than one that has a separate float switch). It seems like a pretty
small area, and I would like to continue to use a pump with a relatively high
output and a built-in float switch.
I would prefer not to use the technology that turns on the pump to test for
water, as there is very little water getting into this deep bilge, and I don't
want to use power every few minutes for a test. I am also concerned that the
Rule pumps have been getting pretty poor reviews lately.
Anyone have a recommendation?
Thanks!
