I found a better one than float. On the sea tow boats the floats would get jammed with crap in the bilge like a pen did once. Deck drains to the bilge because deck line is below waterline and can't use scuppers. So it gets to be a junk collector.
On own my 14 footer, I've been using a solid state attachable float switch for my 2500 gph Rule for about 5 years. Flawless.
That design is ridiculous because you still end up with a sensor to fail anyway.
