Default Smelly raw-water spigot (Peggy, help!)

Hi

Peggy, I read your book (cover to cover!) and discovered a "why" but
not a "how to fix".

Far Cove has a salt-water spigot in the galley sink, run by a
foot-pump. VERY handy, but the first dozen or so pumps stink worse than
sewage! I understand that's probably because of the critters in the salt
water dying in the hoses and pump. I can replace them, but how do I
prevent this from happening again? I can't flush this system with fresh
water easily, can't clean...

Any ideas?



Yeah, stop pumping dirty water into your galley.

I have salt-water washdowns on my boats, but only to rinse out the cockpit.

What do you wash in your galley with that salt water?
