ANDERSEN Mini Bailer - Outside Mount

The ANDERSEN Mini Bailer – Outside Mount is the compact, reliable solution trusted by dinghy and small boat sailors worldwide for automatic water removal. Designed for vessels where manual bailing is impractical and space is limited, this outside-mount bailer operates silently and requires no power, making it an ideal choice for racing dinghies, tenders, and coastal cruisers. ANDERSEN bailers are recognized globally as the most effective automatic bailing system available, delivering proven performance in demanding marine conditions.

Constructed entirely from marine-grade stainless steel, the ANDERSEN Mini Bailer features a flange mounting size of 56 x 92mm (2-1/4 x 3-5/8 inches), enabling secure installation on the outside hull. The bailer operates on a simple float mechanism—as water accumulates in the bilge, the internal float rises and triggers automatic discharge through the hull-mounted valve, expelling water continuously without user intervention. This passive design ensures reliability in rough seas and eliminates the need for electrical systems or manual operation, making it maintenance-free and corrosion-resistant for long-term service.

The compact 3 x 2 x 6-inch profile makes the ANDERSEN Mini Bailer ideal for dinghies and small craft where installation space is restricted, while the lightweight 0.25-pound construction minimizes impact on vessel weight and trim. Owners of racing dinghies, tenders, and small cruising boats benefit from continuous, hands-free water management, particularly valuable during extended passages or racing events where crew attention must remain focused on sail and course. Installation requires a through-hull fitting compatible with the 56 x 92mm flange; refer to product specifications and your boat's construction for proper mounting location and sealed installation to prevent leakage.
