1988 Ericson 28-2. Anyone know the original design for the electric bilge pumps? The manual doesn't say, it just says "electric pumps".
Mine has two. One for the bilge and one for the sump from the shower. The electric pump for the latter is missing but can see the hose ends and filter and wiring where it was and is the same location and set up as for the bilge pump. It is an impeller pump located under the quarter berth next to the engine approx half between intake in bilge and exit out of the stern. I am wondering if that is the design intent or they were originally submersible pumps located in the bilge and sump.
