I have used SeaFlo FW pumps with good results for three years.

I use SeaFlo for my fresh water pump and a large diaphragm bilge pump. Both are 
great and have withstood 3 years of full time cruising without a hiccup. If 
you're concerned about premature failure, buy two (one for a backup), still 
cheaper than mainstream brands. They are no worse than anything at the marine 
stores. Everything these days is Chinese junk and if you think you're getting 
around that by spending  on brand name marine brands, you're kidding 
yourself.

No, but I am about to replace my blower, B/C it is too noisy - People can
hear it from the dock. In this case, I found an axial fan, like a large
computer muffin fan, and I am going to put it in the place of the existing
one somehow, with some hose adapters from Supplyhouse.com. Then I am just
going to leave it on all the time, as it uses very minimal juice. I had
purchased a couple Marnico exhaust fans, but my only opinions turned out to
be where the jib sheets will snag them.

A quick look at the SeaFlo, they look pretty cheap.  Also, the one on
Amazon says quiet - but at 130 decibels, that doesn't sound too quiet.
