badgerbag Posted July 20, 2019 Report Share Posted July 20, 2019 Does anyone have experience of the cheap £20-30 manual bilge pumps offered on eBay and by some chandlers? I need to buy a manual pump and these are about half the price of a 2nd hand Whale, but do they do the job? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BilgePump Posted July 20, 2019 Report Share Posted July 20, 2019 Yes, they're okay. I paid less than £20 for one with delivery off ebay and use it as a portable thing. I mounted it on a piece of 6x1 that I can stand on. Outlet end over the side, the uptake pipe hold wherever you want and pump with the other hand. The pipe could well be as expensive as the pump. Mine's lasted three or four years so far and had a bit of use so would certainly replace it with another cheapie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
