Just bought a 2018 Beneteau Oceanis 35.1 and can’t for the life of me get the deck shower at the stern working. I suspect there is an isolator valve somewhere but can’t spot it. Showers in the heads and shower room are working fine. Any ideas where I need to look ?
Deck shower isolator?

Has the water system ever been winterized? If so, you have what is a relatively long run from the pump full of air which might take a few seconds more than you waited to purge.
Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your new sailboat!!
Expect the isolator valve is behind the shower per your owner's manual. Might have to remove it to access the valve OR look for a water line and valve in the aft part of the boat.

Another thing I did on my B323 a few years ago... The crew got a bit fed up with the scalding hot water straight off the water heater. I got a hot water tempering valve ! it was maybe 40$ ? Installed on the hot feed from the heater, then a line to the cold and hot faucet feeds and I get 38c hot, just right for showers ( 105 F) , but not too hot for the dish-washing. The bright side was by not using so much HOT water out of the heater , meant there was still some available on the morning after.
