Old Brass Marine Hand Pump For Boat on 2040-parts.com
Victoria, British Columbia, CA
Got this in a mixed lot of marine items I picked up from an estate sale. Tried it out and it works well. Been quite some time since it was used in a boat so I suggest a good clean before using for potable water. Be sure to use the correct grease for the rubber seal on the piston. You want one safe for drinking water and one that doesn't eat the rubber. Ask at your local ship chandler.
Has the usual nicks and scrapes of old brass. Could use a good polish before you clean it
Diameter at bottom is 1-1/4" that narrows to about 5/8" before the threaded bit of the brass fitting for the copper water line that is needed. Size is approx, eyeballed.
I imagine one could also use this as a bilge pump on a small boat.
I notice that there is another pump very similar to this one up now on eBay for much more. Looks to be made by the same manufacturer if one looks very closely.

Reports that General Motors will sell Opel dismissed as 'nonsense'
Thu, 09 Jun 2011German press reports that General Motors Co. is putting its European unit Opel/Vauxhall up for sale were dismissed as speculation by the division and as "nonsense" by a German state with an Opel factory. The magazines Auto Bild and Spiegel reported that GM is considering putting Opel up for sale as management is losing confidence that its European arm will return to profitability.
Brabus GLK V12 at Dubai
Sat, 12 Dec 2009The 750bhp Brabus GLK V12 I hold my hand up and say I am a fan of quick SUVs. It may seem a bit of an oxymoron, but some SUVs – like the Porsche Cayenne Turbo – do a very good job of being all things. Fun sports car; load carrier; junk mover and just about anything else you want.
Is this Aston Martin DB 2/4 the ‘original’ James Bond Aston Martin?
Wed, 21 May 2014Is this Aston Martin DB 2/4 the original Bond car? Lovers of James Bond films will be totally familiar with the iconic Aston Martin DB5 Bond drove in a number of films, and in particular the Aston Martin DB5 which was the star of Goldfinger. Bond anoraks will tell you that the ‘real’ James Bond – the one Fleming wrote about in the Bond series of books – drove a Bentley, but Bond was given an Aston Martin to drive in the Goldfinger book as he chased Auric Goldfinger across Europe.
