Hi Gary,
If you have an inverter on your boat I highly recommend a domestic 110 volt
"well pump" and a fiberglass accumulator tank. They are available off the
shelf at most large home hardware stores and will give you no problem
domestic pressure water throughout the boat almost forever. It will also
draw from either tank in each hull as it is good for a 24' head.
I discovered them when I bought a house in Nova Scotia, Canada and they are
used everywhere in cottage country as they are so reliable. I have fitted
them to a couple of my boats but as the boatyard supplied them I don't know
the brand.
Cheers,

Ladies and Gentlemen,
My questions today are as follows
1-Do any of you have
potable water tanks in each hull and have only one potable water pump or do
you have one pump in each hull for each tank? If one pump, what kind and
does
it successfuly draw water from the opposite tank or is the pump mounted
centally onthe bridge deck?
2-If anyone has one pump what brand and type or
model is it?
3-Does anyone have particularly good experience or bad
experience with specific potable water system pumps? If so, which ones and
if
bad experience what are the problems.
