I have an 89 Sea Sprite 225, does anyone know where the water pump for the sink is? When I turn on the faucet I get no water and I don't hear the pump coming on, I looked through the cuddy but can't find the pump to see if there is a switch. I only put a few gallons of water in the tank does it need more to work? Thanks

Might be a push pull...pull out, push back, repeat

Thanks! It did have a push pull back and forth pump handle that I thought was just on off. After a while of pushing and pulling(the faucet handle!) water started pouring out

I wonder if you could make it automatic by installing a pump somwhere in the line.. My pump for my water is right next to my water tank in the engine compartment.

I wonder if one of these would work..
It's about half the price of the ones at west marine...

You would have to put it a whole new faucet..easier just to run a small windshield washer pump and tubing from a new tank fitting..but the push pull is bullet proof
