Assuming your hoses are intact, then you should be able to pump water through the hand pumps. Do you have the stock Whale Flipper hand pumps at the galley and the head sink? Check the link below. The seals may be dried out so that the pump won't prime. You can buy new seal kits, or new pumps for not much more than the price of the kits. Not sure what you mean by "getting the head working”. That would be a separate problem if you have a marine head. Most came with a Porta-Potty. Kind of hard to troubleshoot long distance. P.S. Don't give up on this site even though Stu sends everyone away :)
