This is a small 14’ boat and I absolutely need to have the bilge able to drain as much water out of the boat possible. I just can’t have 100-200 lbs (or even 500-600 lbs!!!) of water in it in a cold, rocky and fast flowing river. That would be a recipe for disaster. I really think the floor is thick and solid enough so that I can cut a small circle out of it and fit a round Rule 1100 GPH pump in there without having the floor’s structural integrity affected. The batteries and gas tank will be mounted anywhere from 4” to 6” forward of the circle and shouldn’t stress the area too much. I really think that’s looking like the best way to do this. Appreciate all of your input. Keep the suggestions or thoughts coming, everyone. Thanks.</blockquote>
