Overview
A kayak, jon boat or pontoon owner gets a fully submersible pump that arrives with six feet of wire. The description also lists it for live wells, and it works with common bilge kits, hoses and switches.
Compact size and an included wire make it a quick job to add or replace a pump on a small craft. Being non-automatic, it needs a switch to run, and the spec table has a gpm entry that does not match the title.
Who it's for
Anglers and small boat owners who want a compact pump for bilge or live well duty. Larger boats with heavy water intake should look at higher-capacity pumps.
Pros and cons
- Compact submersible body
- Works as a live well pump
- Fits common bilge kits
- Non-automatic, needs a switch
- Flow entry in specs looks wrong
Performance notes
The pump is fully submersible, so it works from the lowest point in the bilge, and output drops as the discharge hose rises or lengthens. A switch or float controls when it runs, since the pump itself does not sense water.
