 Re: bilge pumps???
Rule 1500 or 2000. Same body and style.
We have had some 2000's last for over 10 years on our shrimp boats.

 Re: bilge pumps???
I've had mine for 3 years and it hasn't let me down, just my experience with them, my boat builder puts them in all the state's boats he builds.

 Re: bilge pumps???
Put a piece of window screen around the bilge and zip tie it. It keeps all the shit out, and let's the water flow through

 Re: bilge pumps???
Get one with an auto switch. So that when you leave your boat and it starts raining itll just pump it out whenever it gets full.

 Re: bilge pumps???
You can't go wrong with a Rule 2000, I've been thru 5 or 6 of them. The Rule 3500 is a great pump too, had one last for 8 years in a live well. They can make it happen!

 Re: bilge pumps???
The only prob I have with an auto pump is that my drain plug tends to get clogged with trash and when it rains my pump drains the battery.

 Re: bilge pumps???
I own a Rule 1500 and about to buy two Rule 2000 autos for my two com fishing boats. My GDSD has a smaller Rule but can't recall size.

 Re: bilge pumps???
Must only be those GD trailers that do that, If your boat buckles from holding water then you need to look into getting a stronger hull. But i 've heard that about those GDSD boats. lol
