i got an auto bailer for one of my fast gas boats it was electric with a sensor to detect water.
i had the outlet pipe coupled up to a water outlet on the top of the transom and when it fired up it was like the ending to a blue movie so it got removed there and then, my mate was in stitches.
so i think ill keep the turkey baster...............Pete

Hiya, John. How was your holiday?

I could be barking up the wrong tree here, but could FWI be a typo? Maybe it might be FWIW (For What It's Worth).

Oh, hang on... You said FRI - not FWI.
Oops!

Hmm... you got me stumped with that one.

My personal favourite is COAHTR (something to do with cats and heat and tin roofs).

god i stand more chance of plotting the course of them rubber ducks in the sea that your drifting  but thats another topic in a different area.
Back on the subject of bilge pumps ,on my Brakengarth i have a problem of water seaping through the rear hatch when she buries her bottom ,so to compensate i fitted a 12v fuel pump with silicone fuel tube from a clunk in the bilge and out via a T piece over the sides  which is operated from a Robbie servo switch .
so when she looks a bit low in the water i just pump her out ,as the pump motor is not shielded this has its advantage's when the JJC sound unit goes into full throttle a couple of flocks with the pump and it resets it .
The only other thing i have had to do is fit a filter in line as i broke the last pump when some muck jammed the cog's .
I did buy one of those water alarms from Maplins with the intention of fitting it in Brakengarth wired to the pump but haven't got round to it yet .
