The low spot in my bilge is inaccessable to a standard centrifugal bilge
pump.B  I want to suck that baby bone dry.B 

I believeB I remember reading thatB  I shouldB install a belt driven diaphram
pump.B  I also remember that one type is lots of trouble the other is not (or
less).B  Any recommendations? I will leave my high flow centrifugals in as
backup.

I want to just put an intake hose down in this tight spot in the bilge and
remote mount pump.B  How much lift can I expect to get on the suction side for
my remote mount?

Oh,B  my earlier posts had extraneous characters.B  Any suggestions on that
problem too?

Thanks,
