"Pumps have always been problematic. I have recently purchased a pump that has the batteries inside. Although it bench-tests well, the ocean environment will be the true test. It uses 3 D batteries and pumps 200 gpm with a 4 foot head and may be purchsed from West Marine. We'll see. I'm going to buy a deck-mounted hand pump and mount it just aft of the cockpit. This is a cumbersome position but I don't want it interfering with re-entry. I may try to mount it on the pegs.
