| Get rid of that inboard diesel and become a real sailor.

| I just called and sadly learned that Depco would have to buy my pump
from
| Westerbeke to sell to me -- at full manufacturer price of course. It
seems

worth
| a try.

| Len,
|
| I called them for prices.
|
| As for whether their price is competitive: I found a wide variation on
| price
| for my raw water pump from different vendors. One well-known vendor in
the
| midwest wanted $275 for it (!!), and the local Captain's Locker (Long
| Beach,
| Ca) wanted $180. (Captain's Locker's prices are ok generally.) Depco
has
| the
| pump for $137. This is for an Oberdorfer, model 202-M15 (their
catalog, p.
| 95).
|
| As for part number, they were able to come up with that for me just by
| providing them with my engine model information.

| Thank you Alan! Good resource.
|
| Didn't see prices in their website catalog. I take it you called
them.
|
| What percentage savings would you say they offered vs. authorized
| distributor of engine manufacturer?
|
| Also noted that certain internal parts of a particular pumps seem
| specific
| to the engine manufacturer. Is Depco able to supply these, or must
you
| get
| them from an authorized distributor of engine manufacturer?

|
| Len,
|
| I don't know the answer myself, but here is a good resource for
you:
| www.depcopump.com. Their folks in tech support are very helpful.
They
| do
| pump rebuilds, as well as sell parts and entirely new pumps.
Compared
| to
| the
| other places I checked their prices seemed quite good. (I'm
replacing
| the
| raw water pump on my Universal M25XP.) Check out their on-line
| catalog.

| Seeking advice on how to remove and replace raw water pump seals
on
| Westerbeke 30B3. Techniques and tools to use for
do-it-yourselfer
| would
| be
| appreciated. Does the shaft and or bearing need to be removed?
