Whale Gusher Titan Bulkhead Manual Bilge Pump – Removable Handle
The Whale Gusher Titan Bulkhead Bilge Pump with Removable Handle is a powerful, high-capacity manual marine bilge pump designed for yachts, launches and larger vessels where dependable manual bilge pumping is essential.
Built around Whale's proven Gusher Titan design, this tough yet lightweight pump combines high-volume water removal with simple manual operation, making it an excellent choice as a primary manual bilge pump or an independent backup to an electric bilge pumping system.
With a maximum rated output of up to 105 litres per minute at 70 strokes per minute, 38mm hose connections and a removable operating handle, the Gusher Titan is designed for serious marine applications where reliability matters.

Powerful Manual Bilge Pump
The Whale Gusher Titan is designed for boat owners who need more pumping capacity than a small manual bilge pump can provide.
At a 1m suction lift and 0.5m discharge head, Whale rates the pump at approximately:
- 67 L/min at 45 strokes per minute
- 90 L/min at 60 strokes per minute
- 105 L/min at 70 strokes per minute
This high flow rate makes the Gusher Titan particularly useful for larger yachts and launches, where moving a substantial volume of water quickly may be essential.
Actual pumping capacity will vary according to installation, hose layout, suction lift, discharge head and operating speed.
Independent Emergency Bilge Pumping
Electric bilge pumps are an important part of many boat bilge systems, but they depend on batteries, wiring and other electrical components.
A quality manual bilge pump provides an independent means of removing water if the vessel loses electrical power.
The Whale Gusher Titan requires no battery or electrical connection, making it an excellent addition to a comprehensive marine bilge pumping system.
Removable Handle
The Gusher Titan BP4402 features a detachable operating handle, allowing the handle to be removed and securely stored close to the pump when it is not required.
This is particularly useful where space is limited or where a permanently protruding pump handle would interfere with movement around the boat.
The handle can then be quickly fitted when the pump needs to be operated.
Flexible Bulkhead Installation
The Gusher Titan is designed to provide considerable flexibility when positioning the operating handle relative to the direction of water flow.
The pump head can be rotated, helping installers achieve a practical hose and handle arrangement for the available space.
The pump connects to 38mm (1½") smooth-bore reinforced hose, providing the large-diameter plumbing required for its high pumping capacity.
Tough Marine Construction
Whale designed the Gusher Titan to combine strength with relatively low weight.
Its construction includes:
- Glass-filled polypropylene pump body
- Acetal clamp ring
- Neoprene diaphragm and valves
- Glass-filled nylon operating lever
- EPDM gaiter
- Stainless steel fasteners
These materials provide a durable pump suited to regular use in demanding marine environments.
