Toss a bilge alarm in there to be notified when water is high enough to be an issue.

After reading lots of reviews, I ordered a Johnson UltimaBilge™ 600 12V 3/4". It will be plumbed to a separate 3/4" through hull fitting.
Not because it is the best, but because every bilge pump manufacturer has positive and negative reviews. I am betting that it is safer to have two bilge pumps of different design. A condition that would cause one to fail might not harm the other.

Nice Bruce! I can honestly say I've never seen Johnson Pumps before.

Cool Bruce!
I'm expecting video of the install. You will have bikini clad young ladies assisting you with your Johnson pump.

I guess so, and I hear he's going to install it on his boat! Probably be the life of the party at the lake on Memorial Day!
