Water pump??

[John T3]

Originally I had designed my tear to use a gravity fed system, but after test fitting it I decided to relocate the water tank to the galley floor under the faucet.
Now I'm in a bit of sticker shock surfing the net for water pumps. The cheapest thing I see runs over fifty bucks (Shurflo). Well, I'll bite the bullet if I need to, but has anyone seen or is using something else?

Dear John,

The are many pumps cheaper than that. There was a wholethread that I think Madjack contributed to regarding pumps with a faucet and a switch for under 25 dollars. Hold on I will try to locate it for you.

Hi John

Of course you realise that you still do not have to have an electric pump?, there are plenty of hand pumps out there.

John,

I lived on a boat with a hand pump, It works good but I really love my 12Volt pump. Used it the first time last weekend.4 days camping, it was great, good water flow at the touch of a button. This is the best value I have found in a pump too.

Wow $25 for both thats a fantastic price, is that really Jabsco or just "replacement for" Jabsco?

Dear George,

It is a replacement.

Thanks for the advice all! I bit the bullet and spent 45$ at Camping World for one. Self priming, no switch, minimum hassle. I was tempted to get the hand pump, but I already have the faucet. Then, after all the dough I've already put into the project I didn't need to listen to the spousal unit ask, "I have to what to get water?"
