    Ballast pump suggestion needed.

    Can anyone recommend a reversable, self-priming, equally efficient, Marine duty pump that doesn't allow water to flow while off....I am thinking of installing a simple rear balast system. Thanks,

          Factory Ballast Pumps?

          Can anyone tell me what kind of ballast pump comes in the newer nautiques from the factory?

            RE: Factory Ballast Pumps?

            Simer BW85 from B.E. Atlas work great, just keep in mind they are not ignition protected so they have the potential to ignite gas fumes (as do non-marine alternators and other non-marine electricals).

            I will probably be installing some to replace my fill pumps in my 05 211, the drain pumps work fine, I just want to eliminate the cable valves.
