Title: Clever Pump
Post by: Ron Hill on July 01, 2012, 01:04:23 PM
It's been advertised on TV and in the Heartland America (800)229-2901.  It beats hauling a shop vac to the boat!

It's a liquid transfer pump, looks like a 24" stick and powered by 2 "D" batteries.  It will pump (1 1/2 gpm) out the fridge, the bilge, the head and diesel from a 5 gal jug.

I found this $19.99 pump so handy that I also bought one for home use.  A thought

Way cool, Ron.  We keep the wet vac in the aft lazerret but this looks very handy.
