Submersible Boat Bilge Water Pump 12v 1100gph Non-Automatic Marine Electric Bilge Pump for Ponds, Pools, Spas Silent, Boat Caravan RV Submersible

I have a sailboat. Nothing extravagant, but she's mine and I love her. I needed a bilge pump. Found this one. 1100 gallons per hour, two wire installation, draws zero power until it's actually needed. Installed it in under twenty minutes. Works flawlessly. Water comes in, pump handles it, water leaves, boat stays dry. Exactly what it promised. Five stars for the boat. Done. But then I started thinking. My neighbor - let's call him Steve, because that's his name and he has earned this - has a sprinkler system. I use the word "system" generously. It is a broken sprinkler that fires in whatever direction it feels like that particular morning, which is almost always directly at my property. My car. My windows. My life. The water spots on my car alone have aged me visibly. My wife has noticed. She has not said anything but I can tell. And then there was the incident. One warm afternoon I left my window open, the one that faces Steve's yard. Came home an hour later to find the inside of my house soaking wet. My windowsill. My curtains. The book I had been reading. My dignity. All of it. Steve's broken sprinkler had been cheerfully watering my living room for the better part of an hour and nobody stopped it because it doesn't have an off switch that works. I have offered to fix Steve's sprinkler. Multiple times. I have the tools. I have the knowledge. I have offered labor free of charge simply to make this stop. Steve says he'll "get around to it." Steve has been getting around to it for three years. The result of three years of Steve's broken sprinkler is a large, permanent puddle that lives in the corner of my yard. It does not drain. It does not evaporate. It just sits there, growing, becoming its own ecosystem, attracting every mosquito within a three mile radius. I have been donating blood to this puddle involuntarily every summer evening for three years. So. 1100 gallons per hour. What this pump does, beautifully, efficiently, and with absolutely no moral hesitation, is take water from one place and move it somewhere else. And it turns out that "somewhere else" can very precisely be Steve's yard. His car. His porch. His dog, who frankly also needed a bath. His kids, who were outside and probably needed cooling down anyway because it was a warm day. The puddle is gone. The mosquitoes have relocated to Steve's yard, which feels correct. Steve has called a sprinkler repair company. Steve's dog looks great. 5 stars.

I don’t know what else there is to say. For being a little 12 V pump, this thing really pumps water! I use it to pump out my 150 gallon test tank for my outboard motors. It will drain it in under 10 minutes! It also doesn’t require that big of a battery. I use a 12 V power wheel four amp hour battery and it works just fine. It does leave about a half an inch on the bottom of water that I can’t get out. If you buy white bilge pump hose, it fits perfectly. Also shoots out almost a foot and a half at the end of the hose. A very, very impressive little pump! I will be buying another for my boat and another for my dads! Also very easy to clean. Update: Nothing wrong, just felt compelled to do an update on this amazing pump. Almost 3 years and over 80,000 gallons of water later, this thing is still pumping away. Amazing pump!!! Just unbelievable! This thing pumps way better that my 110v sump pump, although the lift is not as high. Goes through 100 feet of bilge hose just fine. Keep up the great work on great products

This is probably too strong for what I need it for. I use it to clean out my duck pond a few times a week to give them fresh water. We use the water for our garden and compost bin. I attached a 48’ hose to it and this thing pumps like 18g per minute. I could have gotten less flow so I don’t drain the water so fast, but this thing works great for its price. I’ve used it a dozen times now. Instead of carrying around a battery I use a battery charger and just put negative to negative and positive to positive and it works perfectly. If you need something affordable but incredibly strong this is the way to go.

Bought this to replace a motor on my motion duck decoy. Rated for the same gph, and same outlet size, however this item does not appear to move quite as much water/make similar motion. It works, but not as well as the factory (with same ratings/size) which is the reason for the 4 stars.

Perfect replacement

I have this bilge pump installed on my go fast jetski and am so glad I did! Yesterday the pump nozzle blew off at 85 mph and ripped out the steering cable resulting in a leak. I had this pump running for 1 hr straight and it absolutely saved my ski from sinking while I paddled to shore.

Good quality good value easy hook up

Ensure preparedness, buy two !

Ether it Didn’t work or I am too stupid to use it.

Purchased June 2022 and died October 2023. Ran on a timer 5 times a day for half an hour each time. Probably would still be working if I hadn't run the tank dry while on vacation. This is the second 1100GPH pump I bought and for some reason had a higher flow rate than a previous pump purchase.

The strength of this pump is unbelievable. I have had pumps worth almost double the price which under performed this one. The quality is also very good. I'd imagine it will last me a long time of continuous use. For those searching for submersible pumps like this, I would suggest buying them ASAP since currently it's an absolute bargain.

Working perfectly so far!

I received a non-working unit. The pump does not move. I will update the review depeding on what the seller does. Edit : I receive a new unit and it's working. Take note that the in-rush amp draw is way more than 4amps. You'll need a beefy power supply.
