harrycatcat1 Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 As above, I was wondering what sort of job it is or am I better just buying one? There is a copper one on fleebay but I cant see it lasting two minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisheruk Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 Just buy one, they last for years. I had mine 20 years ago and it is still good. Salt water corrodes anything but good SS. The cost of trying to work SS is crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

columbus Posted August 29, 2016 Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 Copper pumps will last a few years, dependant on how often you pump. If an Alvey lasts you 20 years your not pumping much bait. Before I started making my own, an Alvey would last about 6 months before having to do a cut because the mouth had worn away and buckled, after the first cut you would be lucky to get another 3 months out of one before it was ready to be scrapped.
