: How about a DYI electric pump?
: Bill

I've gone as far as buying an Attwood 500, some hose, some hose clamps, a switch with waterproof cover, and even scrounged a couple of 12V gel-cell batteries out of the EXIT lights in the old Annex building!

Just haven't made time to put things together.

Also trying to decide whether I want a day hatch in the Cormorant (where the battery might go) or stay 100% bulkhead-less. Decisions, decisions. The flat aft deck, no ribs, no bulkheads appears to be plenty tough.
