[Rhodes22-list] new to list/ bilge pump

[Rob Lowe]

Bill,
Not following you here I'm afraid??

Steve,
The boat I have is set up as you suggest, but it doesn't have a check valve.
The previous owner plumbed it up that way.  Just make sure the bilge pump
tube has an area higher than where it meets the sink drain so that water
won't flow back down it from the sink.

Steve,

Be careful with this installation, your boat might have a predisposition to
turn starboard.

Hello, I am new to this list, I have been a silent observer for the past few
months. My name is Steve, I live in Pompano Beach Florida.  I just purchased
a 1982 Rhodes 22 from Brad Haslett in Tenn. I have been working on the boat
for the last few wks. adding a Fixed VHF and cable through the mast, and
some electrical work. I am installing a bilge pump and have a question, I
want to run it to drainthrough the sink outlet tube, but in the FAQ on the
link it says to add a check valve.  If someone can give me some more details
that would help.Where do I put the check valve, do I use a regular platic
Tee to hook the tube to the drain valve tube.  Thank you in advance.  Steve
