Manual Sink Pumps

We now own an older sailboat with defunct sink hand lever pumps. Moved from larger boat with electric freshwater system, so not used to this style of FW pump. Trying to decide whether to replace with a foot pump (more expensive and bigger) or a new hand lever pump at the sink. How well do they prime and how long do they tend to last?
