Seeking your wisdom... I'm looking for advice from other C270 owners about how, where & why you set up your bilge pumps.
Currently, I have a little 450 GPH PAR diaphragm pump. A float switch in the bilge activates the pump which pulls bilge water through a 1" hose, through the pump located under the port side of the aft cabin, and then through the hull - not sure if that was a factory set-up. I like having the primary pump has a diaphragm because it sucks the bilge nearly totally dry. But I am interested in a higher capacity secondary pump (2000 GPH or so). I'm looking for other owner's experiences as far as specifically where on the 270 you mounted your pump(s), if you found a brand/model that fits in the bilge itself, if you have had success with running a single centrifugal pump (e.g. Rule) instead of dual pumps, if you found it necessary to set up pumps for different compartmetns, etc. Any of your thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!! Sean
