These are on sale . I have an electric BP but nw that I have gone to a smaller battery I'm thinking a manual would be better. How would / did anyone mount these .im not keen to open up holes to inside the hull, even with good sealing . Ideas welcome.

The standard mount is on the forward bulkhead of the starboard locker, with discharge out the transom. Inlet pipe is glassed through and into the area under the cockpit sole.
