ANDERSEN Super Mini Bailer - Inside Mount

The ANDERSEN Super Mini Bailer – Inside Mount is a compact, automatic bilge pump engineered for small watercraft, dinghies, and tender vessels where space is critical and reliable water removal is non-negotiable. Recognized worldwide by sailing and boating communities as the industry standard for automatic bailing, this inside-mount configuration allows installation within the vessel's hull while maintaining minimal footprint and weight. Whether you're managing water ingress during extended voyages, inclement weather, or routine seawater spray, this bailer provides continuous, hands-free operation that frees crew to focus on navigation and sail trim.

The Super Mini Bailer operates on a simple, proven mechanical principle: water entering the flange chamber triggers an automatic valve mechanism that expels bilge through the discharge port without requiring electrical power or manual activation. Constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, this bailer withstands prolonged saltwater exposure and maintains functionality across a wide operating envelope. With a compact flange footprint of 61 × 106mm (2-7/16" × 4-3/16"), it integrates seamlessly into confined bilge spaces typical of racing dinghies, cruising sailboats, and small outboard-powered vessels. The inside-mount design eliminates through-hull complications and simplifies both installation and routine maintenance checks.

Sailors and marine technicians depend on the ANDERSEN Super Mini Bailer for its reliability in competitive and cruising environments where automatic systems reduce crew workload and improve safety margins. The inside-mount configuration suits builders and retrofitters who prioritize internal installation over external hull penetration, preserving streamline aesthetics and reducing the risk of accidental damage during beaching or mooring. At just 0.5 lbs, this bailer adds negligible weight penalty—critical for performance-oriented craft where every gram affects ballast trim and sailing efficiency. Inspect the stainless steel construction annually and verify flange sealing; the bailer requires no external power source and operates continuously as long as water reaches the intake chamber.
