Pros & Cons
Pros
Quality control is excellent and the design is fantastic. Works perfectly and is difficult to foul. Just a few screws to take apart and replace if needed.
Cons
It's a good thing i didn't buy it as a bilge pump, or i might be visiting davy jones' locker. High output but fixed handle is short so tiring if your bilges are full.
Highlights
Quality
Thank heavens i haven’t had to use it yet but upon inspection the quality control is excellent and the design is fantastic
I needed a way to pump creek water up a small hill over 40ft distance and decided to try thisit works very well
The 4 holes didnt match up with the old pump i didnt expect them to but a simple matter of drilling 4 holes took care of the mounting
Price
Cost was about the same as a rebuild kit for the larger one anyway
Competitiveness
I bought this to replace an older pump on our 25ft catalina sailboat

The large hole was ok but i did have to drill new holes for the mounting screws

The bolt pattern is unforgiving so use care

It also wasnt an exact match in pattern from the old one so be prepared to drill a few new holes

There are as few moving parts as possible and as few gaskets to replace as possible too

Ease of install depends more on boat spaces available
