Looking for universal m25 water pump. STAT

Post by johnthejetpilot »

Putting in request for boater in slip next to me..nice folks who just bought a Catalina 34. Enroute up eastern side of Lake Mi. Currently in Frankfort. The water pump to their Univeral M25 failed. Trying to locate one at anyplace open prior to Tues.
they’ve tried Amazon, tractor supply & Napa (both nearby), along with eBay and Craigslist, and a variety of local marinas (all closed till Tues). So far no luck.

Any thoughts or ideas would be welcome, they r willing to grab taxi or U-Haul (no  car rentals nearby).. I’ll share with them in am before I depart on leg 3 of summer 2025 Adventure to Charlevoix. 

TIA

John,

Raw water pump OR closed cooling system water pump?

Sorry I was not more clear-

It's the closed cooling system pump.

That pump is harder to solve/jury rig. Are you sure it’s not the themostat?

I sourced my water pump for my M35B universal straight from Kobuta. The also had the gasket, and the thermostat. The raw water systems is only Universal.
