Our boat is 10 years old this year so there is wear & tear and systems/processes need to be updated.
Our shower pump isn't doing what it used to..
I have cleaned out the screens of debris, tried dumping drano, pushed a coat hanger through head floor drain.
Any thoughts on issue/solution?
Would rather spend money on making boat go faster or look better versus internal plumbing :)

Is your shower pump also connected to your refrig drain? Has the switch over handle been moved at all?Does the refrig drain with the pump?There may be a clog in that valve or your impeller may be shot.Good Luck.

Perhaps the pump diaphram might need to be replaced. I had a fresh water pump (Shurflo) problem and found small pieces of plastic wedged in the diaphram.

All good!
Took it all apart and found small pieces of plastic and assorted crud blocking lines to the pump itself.
Thanks for advice.
