That is about right - much better than lauing on the bottom of the bilge
& picking up whatever might be down there. The pumps usually have
screens to protect them.
My problem with them is the wiring usually fails. If you remain
dependent on a Rule pump - it will fail. I have hd my boat Infinity
since 1997 and have replace the pup 3x then gaveup & fixed the whale
pump with the boat.
The concept is simple if you own the boat you should /will visit it
regularly so give here a pump everyonce in a while. Now - If you haven't
upgraded the thruhulls - or the hoses or monitor the drip on the
stuffing box - you might worry ... so the automagic pump might save you ???
