pearson triton manual pump in cockpit broken

[zevkirsh]

how do i find out information regarding how to fix this thing?
i've been using a manual hand held bilge pump and it's been not pleasant. i'd like to use the manual pump built into the cockpit side wall but it's broken and don't know how to fix.

any advice?

take a photo of it and post it here would be step 1. There's no telling what sort of pump you've got installed there.

How is it broken? are the hoses connected? is the diaphram torn?

There should be some identification on your pump. You can remove it, if no identification is visible on the exterior surfaces, to determine the make and model. You really must do your homework to determine that all the components are in working order. A blocked strum box, a broken diaphragm, a broken hose, Etc.....any of these can cause your pump to fail.
