Hi Greg. Thanks mate. You have given me a great idea. I think I will drill and tap a couple of holes into a couple of pieces of stainless, mount a pump on each piece of stainless with screws and then sikaflex the stainless to the bottom of the bilge. That way it will be secure and I will be able to remove the pump in future if needed by just unclipped the pump leaving the holder mounted to the stainless. I reckon that will work a treat. Shame about you having to keep replacing your pumps mate but at least the kids are enjoying the boat I guess.
Cheers
