go to ebay and type in
jabsco washdown pump kit 4.0gpm
i have that on my boat is more than enough
either buy the kit without hoses and source your own
or pay a bit more and buy the one with the coiled hose
either way highly recommended
quobbarockhopper recently installed one on his boat and rates it

depends on the boat
on the 5m we use a jabsco parmax range, johnson etc they are all much of the same, all i can say is put the biggest one you can possibly fit in
higher pressure and higher volume is what your after
i know of a boat running these, skipper loves them but id already outfitted, if i was to replace mine that probably where id head

on the weapon with a genset we run a 240v high volume davey water pump - its awesome with a fire hose nozzle on it, you can flood or you can get pressure
no scrubbing when we get home.. everything gets blown away
not exactly the right duty but @ $230/pop the wet end just needs replacing every 4 years or so for about $80

These are awesome if you
These are awesome if you have room. Takes up no space and great quality. I'll Have a check what pump Ive got it hooked up to. It's a jabsco but not sure about size. I added the wash down to an existing pump and could use a little bit more volume. When this pimp shits it self ill replace it with the biggest pump this wash down system will handle.
