Hi Joel,

How fast will you sink? http://www.johnvigor.com/Blog.html
Sometimes I think pumps are like "psychological placements" when rock
climbing, you put them in when you can, and it helps to think you
tried, but you know it won't stop you if you fall. I zippered six or
eith pitons in the old days, and was saved by my partner. I landed
on top of him, and he was hurt a lot more than me. Oops.
Usually color of the pump doesn't matter, just get the biggest one
that will fit, and install well.
Good Luck, Lee

Joel,
I bought one of these (I haven't fitted it yet) it has a built in
electronic float switch and will fit between my keel bolts.

If anyone else has one working I'd be interested if it was an OK choice!

The bilge pump on my 35/3 is under the forward dinette seat. A hose
leads to a strainer in the forward sump just behind the mast. I'd
like to replace it with a higher volume pump, but I can't find one
that will fit in the bilge compartment next to the keel bolt without
spending ridiculous amounts of money. Any recommendations?
