I'm also curious if anyone has any experience with these sumps. In particular the bulkhead/bulkhead hole cover. What is the size? and could the the bulkhead hole cover be used with a standard bulkhead to run an extra drain line for a herbie setup?

Now that's some customer service right there.. they are offering to answer any questions. Those sumps do look great by the way.

Thanks for the quick response. I have a versa 42, but doesn't seem to have standard plumbing. I had an extra hole drilled to use a herbie drain. The main drain hole is 1 5/8" which currently has me at a loss for bulkhead size - the only one i see that fits would be a 3/4" sch 80. The emergency is 1 1/4" which would be a 1/2" sch 40 bulkhead. it was sent with PVC-U fittings - I plan on bringing them with to the hardware store to see what I can match up to it. It's great all of the Simplicity sumps come with a 2 drain option - rare find.
