Also put a check valve in the line. I had a problem with water hitting the transom and backflowing into the bilge when we were sailing at much speed.

I drilled an installed a stainless thru hull to handle the output. It was a very easy job, very inexpensive and I like the idea of fresh redundant plumbing.

I would like to leave the existing manual pump in place and operable. Any suggestions on pump make model, install and maximum uses of existing plumbing?
