I fitted the Swedish "Bolin" pump in my boat originally some 3 years ago. I believe that the initial one was faulty as I had to replace it recently. The Bolin is extremely small, should be fitted in the return side of a pumped radiator system (Water is at it's coolest). I believe that 6, 12 & 24 - volt models are available. They are very expensive but probably have the lowest current darin of any small pump. They are available from T W Marine, High Peak, Whaley Bridge, near Stockport. I think my replacement cost me about £130.GPP Good luck with the proposed work. ~Allan~ nb.Pengalanty
