    The military approaches this issue assuming the realistic possibility that a
    pilot in the water could be injured and unable to endure continuous pumping
    requirements. I could see a similar situation when a boat is abandoned.

    Every "solution" has its positive and negative aspects. Probably the safest
    path is to choose redundancy.

    Again, for the record, I just discovered this product after reading a local
    newspaper article. I have no connection with the company and I have no
    experience with their products.
