    Following photos show the method of making a slide holder for the board with epoxy.

    The white rectangle mold is made with polyethylene sheet material.

    The bilge hull sides are prepped. The mold's two ridge shapes filled with epoxy mishmash and glued to the sides. Not much pressure is needed to hold the molds while curing. I used balled up plastic film, jammed down in!

    Because of the truncated mold shape the mold pops right off after the epoxy is hard.

    Turns out there is just enough space to set the board in its place
    It is held quite firmly when housed.

    Now we have to hook up the various wires and run the hose.

    Both pumps use same 1 1/8" Vinyl hose. Small pump hose will exit into cockpit.

    Large pump hose will exit high up on the hull, with syphon break loop. Not sure just where,
    but the hose for efficiency has to be as short as possible.

    Now that is a sweet setup.

    I was planning on the dual pump setup on Destiny and I really like the way that is set up. Easy to maintain which is something that will be an ongoing thing with the small pump.

    Very nice work!

    Ebb,

    Very nice work!

    You have the same system as I have... except;

    I use an Atwood 750 for the small pump
    I use a Rule 2000 (Gold) for the large pump
    My buzzer is mounted up near the companionway (it is loud enough to hear in a hurricane... you can test it and hear it from the parking lot in the marina).

    And (as usual)....

    Your install is about 100x neater, cleaner, and more photogenic then my install.

    For more discussion of this, and the thinking that lead me to the same system you have here see this thread.
