Whale Orca 2000 GPH Submersible Bilge Pump 12V

The Whale Orca 2000 GPH Submersible Bilge Pump 12V is engineered for boaters and anglers who demand reliable water removal in confined bilge spaces. Whether you're running a center console, cruiser, or fishing platform, unwanted water infiltration—from heavy weather, splash-over, or minor leaks—can compromise safety and equipment longevity. This compact submersible pump sits deep in the bilge where it's needed most, automatically protecting your vessel when conditions demand it.

Built on Whale Marine's proven Orca family design, this 12-volt electric pump delivers 2000 gallons per hour of displacement—enough capacity to handle serious water volume without oversizing or drawing excessive amperage from your vessel's electrical system. The submersible configuration allows installation directly in the bilge sump, eliminating exposed intake lines and reducing clutter in tight spaces. A large-surface-area filter base captures debris and sediment, protecting the pump's internal impeller from damage caused by bilge contamination—a critical feature on fishing boats where mud, sand, and organic matter accumulate during extended offshore or freshwater use.

This pump is ideal for vessels 25–45 feet in length, where manual or rule-of-thumb bilge management falls short and a single high-capacity automated pump prevents saturation. Install it as a primary bilge pump on smaller craft or as a secondary backup system on larger boats. The compact dimensions (6 × 5 × 8 inches) fit into tight sump areas, and the 12-volt rating ensures seamless integration with standard marine battery banks. Pair it with a float switch or automatic bilge controller for hands-free operation during overnights, tournaments, or extended anchoring.
