Hi Kevin,

If you are referring to the shower sump pump this should be the model http://store.hamiltonmarine.com/browse.cfm/pump-shower-bilge-12v-4.5-gpm-7.5-amp-120446/4,52515.html

Replaced ours this spring (1986 C34). The model was a perfect replacement to the original including attachment screw holes. It also includes an inline strainer to be installed between the sump and pump.

There's a newer version with a shroud over the pump arm.

Kevin : You can replace the Whale diaphragm pump or substitute a rotary pump (like your fresh water pump) instead.  Your choice!!

Cliff : With some difficulty, thru the door under the head sink!!  :cry4`
You can gain a bit more room to work with by removing the door and the frame.
