Albin-25 Manual Bilge Pump

Any idea what brand of pump was used in 1976? It's tucked in an awkward position under the starboard cockpit seat and I don't want to remove it until I have either a new pump or a repair kit for the original.

Hey Nick,
I know it's been awhile since you posted this so, I'm guessing you've already solved your problem. But, just in case, it's a Whale pump.

Wow, the manual bildge pump came from the Albin factory in that weird location? Oops, I was wondering why a PO put it there!

Here is how I fixed my Whale Gusher when the retaining ring for the nitrile diaphram broke.

Before ordering a replacement or repair kit, it's actually pretty easy to remove and when mine was malfunctioning I discovered a piece of debris on the outlet flap which was stopping it from priming.
