David,
I just returned from the Krogen Owners Rendezvous at Solomon's Island this
past weekend. One of the boats there was showing off his new raw water
washdown pump. Supposedly 70 psi and it really shot a stream of water. He
said the pump was made by Johnson. That's all I know.
Regards,

Thanks Randy,
I came across that one at iBoats.com web site. Appearantly a MayFair pump
sold as a Johnson. About two times the pressure. I already have 12 volt
power at the bow with 4/0 cable and a thru hull so I will avoid running 110
volts to the bow. This pump sounds very good to me. Thanks again, great to
get a visual on how it might work.

Tough mud in the Bay.

Has anyone plumbed their water maker to also be a pressure washer? Its
all there: salt water intake, motor, high pressure pump. The stream of
water just needs to be diverted from the membranes to a hose on deck, I
think....

That is what we have done. We have a 1200 gal a day water maker from Aqua
Marine. All you need is a high pressure valve and some hose and I have a
wand like you have at a coin op car wash. Works like a charm it is plumed to
use fresh or salt water.
It is also great to wash down the salt off the boat after a lumpy ride. Aqua
Marine sells a package that has everything you need I think it was about
$300-$400 but will last a very long time.

Here are the specs on the Johnson washdown pumps:

All four variants are carried by Depco Pump.
