Riot Bilge Pump

Hand Pump For Bailing A Swamped Kayak

The Riot Bilge Pump is an essential bit of safety and rescue kit for many paddlers. Most Sea or Touring paddles like to carry a bilge pump every time they go out, especially on open waters.

This lightweight, floating bilge pump from Riot Kayaks is easily stowed away and simple to use when needed. Bilge pumps can be used in kayak self-rescues to quickly empty the cockpit area of water after a re-entry. Some open canoeists also prefer to use a bilge pump instead of, or in conjunction with a bailer style soft bucket to remove water quickly from a swamped canoe.

With a maximum capacity of 36 litres per minute, the Riot/Beluga Bilge Pump is an effective must have bit of safety kit for open water paddlers.
