When my girlfriend and I upgraded from our stubby 9'6" rec boats to 14'5" touring boats, I bought a pair of these. Though I didn't expect to ever use it, it was something I knew was essential to keep on hand in case emergency circumstances arose. Our new boats have front and rear bulkheads that prevent them from being There have been several times when I have used this and it has been extremely useful. Because it floats, is lightweight, and isn't as heavy as a boat, I don't have to paddle a huge boat back to shore to retrieve it. I highly recommend this book!.
In order to use my kayak, I needed a bilge pump. A list of the ten best online shopping sites was found on the internet. The one in question was this. There seems to be no problem with the This is not a heavy product, but it is It has never been necessary for me to have one, although I have gone on paddle tours with others. As this one was a good price, I got one just for the sake of having I would get one with a hose again if I had the choice. husband dug out a foam tube from the garage that will work fine if I need it someday. Even though it seems self-evident There should have been some paperwork in the box that explained how to use it, but there wasn't any! There is nothing! I have no idea who made it, what it is made of, where it was made, etc. I simply don't know anything. It is something I hope to never need. The same way you would need a fire extinguisher in your home.
It's awesome how this pump works. You may even save your life when you need it the most. Thankfully, we had a crack in the scupper so we didn't get any water in our kayak.

You can also use it to keep your bait alive by using water inside your cooler.
Having just acquired my DasMarine Kayak Hand Pump, I rushed to help my son when he fell out of his kayak. The water came gushing out of the exit pipe with great force with every stroke of the handle up and down. Using the pump, I was able to reduce a half full water kayak to about 1/8 full in about five After removing the water from the kayak, we brought it back to the shore. So much so that I have ordered another DasMarine Kayak Hand Pump for my other kayak as well.
Upon looking at the pump, I was amazed at how large it In the end, I had 2 feet of clear plastic hose with a 1" ID that I could get As soon as I had my kayak pumped out, I started paddling. There was no problem pumping water through the pump, and full volume of water per stroke was pumped until about 1/2" of water remained before it lost Overall, I would give it a thumbs up and buy it.
It looks well made and durable. It seems to have a high capacity and move water quickly. The down side is that there is no hose which allows water to be directed.
You will have to add 1 inch tubing to get the most Using an old washing machine drain tube is the easiest, lightest, and free way to install one. that you have used up all those corrugated plastic tubes, go repurpose them.
