Had to install a pump because the angle of the drain pipe was not enough to drain completely. I added it to the bottom switch on my upgraded switch panel. I used a utility pump found at harbor freight for 37 bucks. Now fast drain. I wanted it completely recessed so the galley would not hang up when slid across. I also made a cover for the sink. I use 2 dish pans for dishes and dump them in the sink to drain. I use the sink for shaving and brushing my teeth. I made a cutout in the winch storage area lid for my sprayer. Keeps it out of the way. It is also nice when the sprayer is not there to reach in a grab small items without removing the lid. Also convenient to the cockpit for rinsing sand off your feet. I push the galley back in for dish washing. I sometimes wash them in the cockpit. When done, I nest the dish pans together and leave the dishes in the dish pan for drying. I heat water for washing, in a tea kettle, not boiling, and rinse with the sprayer. This system works great. The sprayer is used for showers, just add a boiling hot tea kettle and sit in the cockpit floor and place the sprayer on the seat for a nice hot shower. Towels on the life lines for privacy. Bathing suits can be used if modesty is required. The garden sprayer is great. Never breaks, holds 2 gallons. Someone made one in black for solar heating with more of a shower head, just for boaters, I forget the brand. My sprayer can be adjusted to stream or mist. I like it just fine. Can't be accused of not taking the kitchen sink any more.
