fuel... here is a page that has one rated at 40 gph.

Something like this drill powered pump might be better for filling your fuel
tank... 225 gph.

No, but it's a thought. The ones I know are about 30 gph which would take
about 15 minutes per gas can, so probably not fast enough for what I would
want. I think my hand pump is faster than that. I have not looked for an
electric one yet, but maybe there are some, at a reasonable cost that
would work.

Sorry, not for gasoline... big warning on the package. Have you
looked at a
12v faucett pump?

wing of a
docked floatplane isn't always that easy. What I use today is a
little hand
pump that goes into my gas can on the dock, and pushes the fuel up
to the
wing. It works, but is slow and cumbersome. If there is a cheap
electrical
one, I might be interested.

there. I
sometimes get a few cupfuls out of the front compartments after
being in
rough water, as I still haven't sealed off my front wheel well
hydraulic hose
grommets, but that's it.
