Have a gulper bilge pump but want to have a longish removable inlet pipe so that I can get water from more than one section of the bilge (there are no limber holes). I could use 12mm hoselock fittings and garden hose but wondered if there was similar option in 19mm?

Never seen such a thing but it may exist.
 
I have a gulper pump on my shower & use a hoselock to connect it to a wandering hose. I find that I do not need 19mm but actually have a brass gas fitting in the end of the pipe with a short length of 6mm ID copper pipe. I have an 8mm diam hole drilled in the cabin floor& the pipe can be inserted vertically & being small diameter will remove almost every drop of water. This saves removing a large floor section. I also find the small pipe can be easily pushed under the engine area for removing drips from the tray. The same from limber holes.
The point of this is that if you think again it may be that you might find that a smaller pipe is more useful than a larger pipe for removing those anoying puddles- Just a thought.
