Wedger Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 Looking for an in-line raw water pump to service live-well and deck wash. In the region of 1500 litres / hr I guess, Jabsco. Anyone got one around please? T Quote
Gazza Posted January 25, 2008 Report Posted January 25, 2008 Trevor, Seen a couple of 2nd hand ones on Boats and Outboards under boat spares ....... If their the right ones? Also a new one..... Quote
TomBettle Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 Trevor If you can find one, a Jabsco Waterpuppy is the kiddy you need. Quote
Adam F Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 Trev, Galeforce Marine do pumps very, very similar to Jabsco's at half the price. Ive been running one all year on OOtb and been very happy with it. They sell through Ebay and are very helpful. http://www.galeforcemarine.com/ ATB Quote
Sinbad Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 Trevor, Galeforce marine is a small business, just doing pumps - the one I got stopped working suddenly after two weeks, so the guys replaced it post free, and its worked ever since. Mind you, I wouldnt use it for a livewell - too much pressure, not enough flow!! Paul Quote
Wedger Posted January 29, 2008 Author Report Posted January 29, 2008 (edited) Thanks Chaps, Galeforce seems worth a punt, if you choose the right one...........any objectors? Which one's the wrong'un then Paul? 25 litre/min @1.2m would do us. T Edited January 29, 2008 by Wedger Quote

Sinbad Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 Trev Mines about 17 l/min and 4 bar - but its not really plumbed in properly through the hull yet - I use it mainly to flush the engine on the mooring, but will be converting it to full deck wash function soon. It looks exactly the same as the Jabsco, only half the price.... Its not as quiet as a rule type bilge - so I'm going for the charlie mark 1 over the side job, for the limited time I plan to spend with a livewell.... Regards Paul Quote
Adam F Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 I agree Paul. Mine is set up as a full time deck wash and a bloomin' good jo it does too - very powerful, but with a Hozelok spray end I can adjust the flow with the lever to gentle for when cleaning the catch etc. I use a Rule 500 bilge pump which is attached to the transom for my bait well, moves a good quantity of water without too much pressure - perfect for a bait well.

Wedger Posted March 5, 2008 Author Report Posted March 5, 2008 Hole drilled.............. Skin fitting in........... Galeforce pump x 45 litres /min to 100 litre tank with snap release for deck wash Quote
