working on some small ball check valves now. 1 per outlet. it lets water back in when submerged, mine are close to the bond line.
Just wondering if people usually glue the bilge pumps straight to the hull, or do you glue or glass down some wood etc and screw them in? thoughts?? Jay
can you buy twin alloy bilge pump brackets, or will i need to make one? J
another question, when running twin bilges with separate switch can you T piece the outlet?? or will the water flow back into the hull if you only have one switch on?
Does anyone know the maximum capacity their ski has for running bilge pumps?
It seems that an 800SXR charges at between 18 Amps to 28 Amps. From what i can see, a 1100Gph Rule bilge sucks between 3.3A-5A. Therefore worst case scenario you could run 3 of those pumps (at 5A) with a ski charging at 18A leaving 3A to charge the battery. Is that a logical suggestion?

What you're saying makes sense in a way. However, if you're in need of 3 - 1100 gph pumps, you've got MUCH MUCH more serious problems than battery charging.
