I have never been pleased with the stock location of the bilge pump on our 2005 24SSV. It is toward the rear of the bilge, and as the boat floats unloaded it still leaves several inches of water forward that could not be scavenged. This season I moved the bilge pump just forward of the V drive, where it seemed the deepest water was always trapped, and now the puddle moved aft when the boat is loaded with ballast. Uuugh.

Is anyone running 2 bilges to compensate for different loadings, maybe come up with another approach? It's not a huge deal, but gets annoying working in a wet bilge all the time.
