Submersible Electric Bilge Pumps
Tough and reliable at a value price
Great performance at a value price, Rule submersible pumps are the first choice for many boat manufacturers. Their motors feature stainless-steel shafts, water cooling and a vibration-free centrifugal impeller that won't burn out if run dry. Strainer bases can easily be snapped off for cleaning. Each pump requires a panel switch for manual operation or a float switch for automatic operation.
- Select from 12V, 24V and 32V models
- Can run dry without damage
- Three-year warranty

Service and delivery comments:
I sent the first one back. It was the wrong size. My fault. I bought the right one from West Marine.I sent the other one back in the and got a return # in the allowable time and they sent me a gift card. I was expecting my money back. I will never buy another product from West Marine again.
Thank you.

Comments about Submersible Electric Bilge Pumps:
I am on my 3rd 800gph square in 4 years. Each time the impeller shaft has completely corroded thru leaving the impeller sitting in the bottom of the housing. When running, some of the water comes out around the casing. If you don't mind a throw-away every year, it is a good buy. The discharge hose is only 10 ft long with a 1 foot head so back pressure is not the issue. Possible a stainless shaft instead of cheap brass. Good news West Marine replaced it free each time!

Comments about Submersible Electric Bilge Pumps:
Pump works great. Used in multiple Jetskis and Boats with good results and lasted quite a few years for the abuse it gets put through. Would recommend it to anyone.
As for the FIRST Review from "CHIEF" in Central Virginia.... its a 500 gallon PER HOUR... I repeat.... HOUR.... NOT per minute... For being an "Avid Do-It-Yourselfer".... Thats a pretty bad ROOKIE MISTAKE.
