Pump Help for Winterizing

Beckson Pump

Nov 10, 2022

Preparing a boat for winter storage involves moving a lot of liquids before the cover goes on. With Beckson Marine’s 109PC Siphon-Mate® Pump, removing the last remains of bilge, freshwater tank, and holding tank water, and other fluids is fast and easy. Add a 212PC Handy-Mate Oil Change Pump and removing and replacing engine coolant and oil is just as quick.

Self-priming Beckson pumps are non-metallic, so they’re safe to use around combustibles and they won’t scratch delicate finishes. Made from durable marine plastic, they won’t get sticky from corrosion, nor rust.

The 109PC Siphon-Mate Pump is a safe alternative to starting a siphon by sucking on a tube. It acts as a positive displacement hand lift pump with valves and will siphon at a flow rate of 1 gal/min. through its supplied 8′ of clear tubing. The pump is 11-1/2″ L, and lifts 4 fl. oz. per stroke.

At only 12-3/4″ long, the Beckson model 212PC Handy-Mate Oil Change Pump is compact for use in confined spaces. Impervious to diesel fuel and motor oil, it moves 8 fl. oz. with each stroke. The pump comes with two flexible red intake tubes, 22″ L x 1/2″ dia. and 36″ L x 1/4″ dia., and a 10″ L x 1-1/4″ dia. red discharge tube.

Beckson Marine’s 109PC Siphon-Mate Pump lists for US$53.85. The 212PC Handy-Mate Oil Change Pump is US$40.25.

You’ve probably heard the expression…your boat is very clean! But what defines this perception of cleanliness? I would say that the beauty of the leather and vinyl has a lot to do with it. In a boat, seats that are soft, shiny, and free of cracks will be comfortable, easy on the eyes, and attractive to a buyer!

Pursuit S268 Sport CC

By Andy Adams

The Pursuit S 268 Sport centre console is a do-it-all kind of boat with a solid sense of style. Centre console designs have been developed for the southern blue water sport fishing enthusiasts (and this boat would raise fish with the best of them) but the Pursuit S 268 Sport centre console offers far more utility and enjoyment than just fishing.

Expanding every few years for the store front, then moving over to this new building five years ago, this year with Adam, Shelley, and Holly are carrying on the business.
