Am trying to figure out h260 bilge pump and electronics. On my boat it is installed about 6 inches to rear of what seems lowest point of bilge well, and sorta is on a little inch raised bulge in fiberglass. Did someone install in wrong spot? The current spot will leave 2 inches in well.
I have a loose pump so can hook this up to power and hose and get these 2 inches, which I will do before leaving boat for month. I took photo of this with thumbs up. This loose pump is newer, it probably has own float switch so maybe I will switch to this and abandon the old gear. What glue will hold this down in standing water for years?
But is there a logic to this I am missing. See pics. Also my water in bilge and wherever water leaks in is VERY BROWN, like under sinks. Is this normal, brown leaching from rusty bits and paint in fiberglass. This bilge issue is my last issue for while.
P.S. My float switch is in a "Sure Ball" box installed next to normal pump. Not sure it's working it never turns off the pump. Maybe my switch at the circuit board is wonky, it feels weird when flip it. I think there is a "automatic" setting to this flip switch, but it feels broken when flipped. It still flips on the pump, but again the Sure Ball never goes
