Courtney Just about every North Pacific Fishing Vessel has a nice little, or maybe not so little, HONDA Trash Pump aboard, with appropriate suction hoses, strainers, and discharge hoses. It is considered REQUIRED Equipment by most skippers. Can be used to keep the water in the fish hold circulating, as well as keeping the water in the bildge from going over the top of the engine. Me Is it gas or electric ? If electric do they run 'em from Honda generators too ? Interesting. Thank you. Courtney Honda Trash Pumps are Gasoline Powered.....if you need it to pump out the bildge....how long do you think the batteries will be above the water level......and most prudent skippers service their Trash Pumps regularly, just to make sure they will start and run in needed in a High water situation......
