I was planning on doing the same for next year myself... I went out last weekend and just happened to open the bilge to do a float test because I haven't tested it since the beginning of the season, and when I opened the hatch there was 6" of rain water and sure enough the switch was bad( thank god I checked it) so I cut out the switch and hard wired it. So next year I'm going to put one pump on a float switch and on hard wired to a rocker on the console as back up. Well worth the extra 100$
