I have been slowly replacing some stock components of my 2017 C-30 (new autopilot pump, adding low speed module, dripless shaft seal). I am concerned about the many posts in this forum about failed bilge pumps, or pumps that do not shut off and burn out. Obviously the failure of this component at the wrong time could be a problem.

So what in your opinion is the best and most reliable replacement aft pump that will fit in the available space, work with the available amperage and not require constant sensor cleaning?
 
My Johnson pump was just replaced by a Cutwater mechanic with a Rule 800 gph automatic pump, cycles on every 2.5 minutes to check for water. No sensor or float switch. About $100,
That’s what he recommended
