Do yourself a favor and forget the ole galley maid / raz pump. Get a shallow well pump to use on shore/gen and a DC diaphragm pump up ..
There is a reason why the stator style pumps are gone...

Re: 53 ED Refit
Is their a reasonably priced dc diaphram pump that isn't $1000 headhunter pump? My galley maid croaked, Mike wants $550 for a refurbished. Very nice guy by the way.

Re: 53 ED Refit
As I said Get a $200/300 shallow well AC pump plus a $200 shurflow DC pump. Full Redundancy.

Re: 53 ED Refit
I have the 32v Galleymaid pump and a stainless 120v shallow well pump. The little 120v pump does a great job and even runs well off of the inverter so the Galleymaid rarely gets used.

Re: 53 ED Refit
Does it matter 12v vs 24v besides price. I was thinking of getting a 38v to 24v converter and a 24 v

Re: 53 ED Refit
Convert or invert. Either way it's simple.
An inverter is more universally used for other devices.Scott

Re: 53 ED Refit
Scott, as long as the converter has the amp capacity for the motor rating, would it be sized correctly? Or should I go larger to handle starting demand.

Re: 53 ED Refit
Greetings folks-
Thanks for the ideas on these things and the questions- here are a few responses and I took a couple more pics- helm seat and media cabinet.
-The beverage cooler was sourced from Wayfair and fit the standard 15" opening where the Scotsman originally was. We ordered this one (15-inch 3.4 cu. ft. Convertible Beverage Center by Whynter) as it would hold both cans/bottles as well as wine bottles. I can put 4 bottles of wine on the top shelf laying down. It's a nice unit. Getting the old icemaker out was a chore as there was a hidden screw in the side. Only minor mods were necessary to the cabinet.
-RE: the water pump- had used the shallow well pump in my Classic and that worked well. Mike at Raz Marine has been extremely helpful in troubleshooting this one. Thanks for the intel on other options.
-Will take stateroom pics once we get window treatments in order. For the salon, we ordered pre-made drapery panels from Bed, Bath & Beyond and also the drapery tabs from Sam's. Sent the materials to my mom, who cut off the tops and re-hemmed to fit length, sewing in the tabs at the top. I'm calling it "semi-custom" drapes
