I have a 27 year old Lowe 24 foot pontoon beast and after about $800 in aluminum welding she still takes on a tiny bit of water in the toons. makes it hard to stay out more than 4-5 hours before it gets sluggish with the weight of water.
I have engineered a solution that would connect 3/8 ID tubing to the plugs and draw water from the bottom of the toons without ahving to cut the toons or drill into them. the only thing that I am missing is a 12V water pump that can pull the water out. I tried a RULE live/aerator pump but it has to be primed to start drawing, and the regular bilge pumps wont pull from a hose. doea anyone have a link or recomendation on a 12 water pump that might be able to draw this water up thorught he hose?
thanks in advance for the help - this forum is always the best place to go for help.
