Fwd: RE: [Alberg30] Cockpit drains

[Jay Davenport]

Mike, 
My thought was to run a separate bilge hose to each of the 2 orphraned "T" fittings, coming from 2 separate electric bilge pumps. I would have redundancy on the pumps, the hoses, and the thru hulls.

the thru hull fitting were ever to fail (God forbid), not only would you 
have water coming in but your ability to pump out the water would be lost 
too. It just doesn't seem like a good idea. I wonder how the insuracne 
companies would feel about "sharing" a drain/bilge pump thru-hull? Anyone 
else with thoughts on this?
