Oh, goody-goody! Let's all keep making the damned bilge pump more and more
complex, with lots more failure points so it can flood the damned boat and
put it on the bottom.....

Parallel two Rule float switches in series with EACH of two bilge pumps
hooked straight up to the batteries through a 3A fuse....

The boat will never sink.....until the flooding exceeds the combined
capacity of the pumps, of course.


Or, of course, the capacity of the batteries.
