Actually, it doesn't suck enough!
In my quest for a completely dry bilge, I recently rerouted the AC drains from the bilge to the shower sump and to a separate sump I stalled. That solved that problem!
I recently washed the chain off in the chain locker, and all the water drained right to the bilge-- I didn't expect that but maybe that's normal. My problem is my bilge pump does not get all the water out. It leaves about 1/2" of water there and that drives me crazy.
Is there a better pump that would suck it all out? Maybe install a secondary pump? I've been use the wet vac to get it all out but that's getting old.
