Repurposed Shower Pump


A small error in the winterisation process meant I dumped the contents of the fresh water tank into the cabin bilge over the course of a week. There's no bilge pump for the cabin bilge as it's supposed to stay dry. However, after a small investment in poly tubing  I was able to temporarily repurpose the shower pump to empty the spilled water from the bilge inspection hole.



It was so successful I'm thinking of connecting the pipe permanently via a three way valve. Or maybe a spare shower pump.
