3 inch abs pipe. third world bilge pump.
i used to see even simpler versions of donkey pump like this on West Indian boats.
I picked this up today from the last oh Heine Doles estate sale.
I was on track to inherit his home and dock for 8 years, he died, his wifes grand daughter got in the picture and gaslighted the hell outta her..she changed the will, this is what i got.
