reversible pumps or aerators?

There's stuff like this on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/171381840907 but the power rating looks like it's woefully inadequate for a reversible pump.  So then you'd need to build a set of cacading relays with this thing as the input trigger.... IMHO too much work and too much to go wrong for benefit of saving you from flipping a carling switch that is rated to pass the current.

this one has a higher voltage rating, would it work? http://www.ebay.ca/itm/12V-2-4G-Bluetooth-Relay-Android-Mobile-Remote-control-for-Light-Switch-Lock-NET-/281213623888

I guess the question becomes how many pumps can i link to at a time?

I like the option of anyone on the boat being able to fill the ballast....although would i have to worry about someone walking past my boat at night and seeing the bluetooth device and then fill my ballast for me? 

dang i wish i knew more about this stuff.
