The outlet hose for my existing pump appears to be very low on whatever pump goes here, almost on the ground. I would love to find a replacement of this style to avoid having to remove this bottom and reinstalling the outlet hose, epoxying old screw holes, sanding and sticking a new different style pump etc..

Any clue ?

in the pic is half your pump. just get new pump, comes with new mount

looks like an older Rule pump bottom. however without the upper half, your going to have to go new

Thank you for your reply Scott. I did get a new one, but my concern is the new pump's outlet hose is on the top half of the pump and this (old) one is on the bottom half of the pump. I was hoping to find one that had this same set up in order to avoid replacing that bottom half of the pump. ie just snapping a new top half in the old set up. Thanks ! Pierce

I was thinking the same as Scott. Looks like a Rule bottom. But that is only a guess on my part. I would however, just buy a totally new setup and rework the area to accept the new system. Then you know for sure it is all working perfectly. JMHO

That sure looks like the original bilge pump that came with my boat (still works, too!). It's been a while since I could handle it (when the engine was pulled) and I don't recall seeing a brand name. I don't think I've seen any new pumps that look like it. When I get home I'll see if I can get my cell phone down into the bilge to snap a photo and maybe I can get a brand name and/or model number off it.

this may be a case where you can hope all you want, however I dont think your going to find what your looking for.
