Fix our boat's noisy water pump!

Time to fix our noisy water pump and hot water heater! The old water pump was VERY loud that could be heard throughout the boat whenever it kicked on. The new one quieted it down by almost twenty decibels.
Secondly we woke up Sunday morning to discover that our hot water heater tank was leaking and needed to be replaced ASAP. We called Fisheries Supply and fortunately they had the exact same water pump in stock but it was at their warehouse but when we told them that we were live aboards they said that they would send someone over and pick it up right away and it would be ready in twenty minutes. Then it was a matter of tearing the old one out and installing the new one in. Bonus the new one had plugs for a heat exchanger so we could heat the hot water tank when we run the genset shaving off time when we charge our batteries and directly heating the hot water tank from the genset. We had Auxiliary Engine come out and pipe it from our Kohler Yanmar engine genset to the new hot water tank. Boom!
