We have a diaphragm bilge pump on persistence. It does not have as high a capacity as the other type but empties the bilge to a lower level due to the pickup it uses which is mounted very low. One benefit is that the pump itself is not located in the bilge. On Persistence the pump is in a cupboard in the head. I also used the water witch auto bilge pump switch that was mentioned on this list last year. There are no moving parts and it works very well.

Has anybody ever enlarged their bilge pump? Any help would be appreciated.
