I agree......6" means you probably have WAY too much water already in the bilge when the second pump kicks on. Plus when it does kick on it's only going to pump down to the original six inches of water left in the bilge. Oh yeah, in my opinion never use the cheap plastic ribbed flex hose. This is where you pay the extra for the reinforced good smooth stuff!!!

Good discussion here.
I cut out my in deck well and can sit in my bilge. {insert slam here}
When I put new bronze thru hulls in the transom, I was going to fill the two 1 1/8" deals for the well. Then I thought they might save my bacon one day if I still had power. I have them plugged in and out.
I also keep forgetting to pick up some nerf balls and Gorilla tape. Nerf balls can make all kinds plug sizes if things go south.
I did pick up a PLB this summah. Hope it gets good and dusty before I have to get a new battery.
Cheers,
