I also use a wet-dry vac for this purpose. I do not want to use the bilge pump because: a) the winter cover plugs the hole in the transom; and b) I winterized the pump with anti-freeze.

I am thinking specifically of removing Mast Water from the bilge during the winter, Altho it might be handy during the season. My bilge now has a rule 1500 which works fine as long as you have at least 3” of water. I ordered a couple cheapies, but wondered if anyone has actually gone through this drill and has had success.
