Guys that baby my boat made me a sheet metal bracket like a backwards s at right angles that is secured on lip compartment with 2 bolts and nylon nuts. Other end has platform that hold both pumps above batteries in bilge. Also has an piece if wood that comes back against seat pedestal post so there is no play front to back or side to side. Makes pumps a cinch to get to and I can undo two screws and get all the pumps out of the way for batteries. Have had it 2 years and LOVE IT.C.O.D. Jr. III
