What is bailer?

A bailer is a tool or device used to remove water or other liquids from a boat, ship, or other container. It is typically a bucket or container with a handle that can be lowered or dipped into the water to scoop up the liquid, which can then be poured out or pumped out through a spout. Bailers can be made of various materials including plastic, metal, and wood, and come in a range of sizes to suit different types of vessels and water volumes. They are an essential item for any watercraft operator to have on board as a safety precaution in case of flooding or leaks.
