Fastflow pumps are awesome. The big issue however is most of us do not have enough space between the coupler and the stuffing box to mount it. Most of the smaller pumps are long.

If you can mount one low in the bilge and power it some other way it's great. They pass large objects and can run dry forever. Therefore they could be run off the engine constantly without a clutch or other engagement mechanism.
