What should the alarm in the GX indicate?
that the pump is running or a water level
and …
You definitely need a relay … the relays in the GX cannot switch a load such as a larger bilge pump … up to 30V and 6A would be possible
technical data of the bilge pump ?

I would still use a relay even if it would be enough. Switching a motor many times always damages a relay in the long run …

Whale bilge pump (incl. vlotter) ----- 12 V, 5 Ampere – then I need a relay ? suggestion?

When I decided to use a bilge pump and a free vlotter then I need a relay for two devices to two relay connections cerbo gx
