Sailfish 236 CC
Bilge Pumps
All Sailfish Boats are furnished with Rule Bilge
Pumps, The Rule 2000 GPH (gallon per hour) pump
has a built in automatic float switch. This is engaged
when the water level rises in the bilge and the float
rises in the pump causing the pump to turn on.
These pumps can be tested by turning them upside
down, the pump should turn on, once turned back
over it will run for a few more seconds and then shut
off. The pumps also have a manual switch function on
the main switch panel.
These pumps are wired into your boat bypassing the
battery switch so that they have power at all times,
this allows the automatic feature to work while you are
away from the boat and the batteries are turned off.
Sailfish boats 236CC and larger are equipped with a
forward bilge pump that is an electronic sensor pump.
These pumps have a state of the art internal water
sensor that detects water and automatically activates
the pump when there is enough present to be pumped
out.
These pumps can be tested by placing your finger
over the “Test Area” on the back of the pump for 5
seconds, the pump will turn on to let you know it is
functioning correctly. All wiring and switches to these
pumps are the same as the Rule 2000GPH pumps.
