Looking to replace a water pump on my 1991 P42. Recommendations?

Current one is a jabsco 5GPM

I've used both Jabsco and Sureflo in my 91 P42. Another thing I did was to install an accumulator tank in that area, just inboard of the water heater. It's a very easy install, and was pretty inexpensive. That results in your water pump only engaging when the pressure gets low in the accumulator tank due to usage. So when somebody is just washing their hands or getting a drink of water in the middle of the night, the pump doesn't awaken folks in the boat.
Cheers,
