Orange Bilge pump and orange 1/2" tube, where can I find them?

I am looking at fitting a few bits to my RIB, I now need an orange bilge pump and some pipe, does anyone know if there is a manufacturer that could make me an orange one, or if any orange ones are about as that may be the cheaper option.

Thanks

I'm not sure - but I AM sure one of these would look good in there somewhere!

Sorry, don't want fish guts in my nice RIB, BUT have just bought a COBB BBQ system for picnics or 3 course meals, so need to sort out the freezer and chip fryer (will run it from my generator)

Solve the problem - Fit a nice set of Elephant trunks using orange hypalon!

Also saves you having to butcher your Flymo to get the orange cable off it to feed the pump with!

And don't forget your self-tanning cream. Drink lots of beer and apply with abandon whilst thinking it's a really good idea. Do this just before going to sleep. When you wake you and your Avon will be brothers from different mothers. Go on, do it, you know it makes sense.
