I need to replace the pump in our shower sump. It is an Attwood V750 pump. They no longer make that model. I emailed them for a recommended replacement but never received a reply. It sits on the floor of the sump box and the outlet fits into rubber receiver so the dimensions are critical. Does anyone know of a direct replacement ?
Thanks Bob

Forget direct replacement, Get a whale gray waste pump and external pump. This unit is a little larger and cost more but works much better. The Attwood stuff is junk.

Bob Last season we were about to head out and found our shower sump kept tripping out. I went into our marina's chandlery and found the entire assembly there for $125 I think the one we got was made by rule but is exactly the same thing. I just unscrew the old one attached the hoses and wires to the new assembly and it's been fine since.

I agree 100%

Get rid of your sump box, and install the Whale IC grey water "T" system.
It is a much better solution

Bob, had exactly the same problem. Couldn't find the Atwood, so bought a whole new replacement sump. Easy fix - about $125.00

Thanks guys, we don't use it very much even though we live on board for about 5 months of the year. With the cockpit shower, warm ocean and marinas it has had an easy life. The Attwood worked well for us but it is over 10 years old now. I'll order a whole new box and swap it out.
