In Response To: foot pump questions (LeeG)

: calling all footpump experts, what's the best/cheapest footpump and method of
: installation.. guzzler 400? ,, and what's with the s.s. spring business?
: installing pump in completed boat? minicell bulkheads? wood bulkheads?
: removal and maintenance? What kind of apple is best with bleu cheese? ,.

I read something somewhere a while back about mounting a pump behind the backband. Has anybody tried this. I think it would be fairly easy to adapt to one of Joe's seats. Everytime you lean back a little you pump out the hull a little. Need lots of pumping after a wet exit?, no muscles stronger than the back muscles. Joe's new back band mount is a good model for a start.
