ABSTRACT:
Several embodiments of bilge devices for small watercraft that permit the use of small capacity bilge pumps and which ensure that the bilge pumps will not run dry during abrupt maneuvers are disclosed. This result is obtained by using a trap-like device that permits water to accumulate from the bilge but which restricts the escape of the water during abrupt maneuvers.
