Re: Fresh Water Pump
I agree with Bill regarding the Marco pump. We have had one for several years now, and consider it to be much higher quality than most of the other pumps available.

Re: Replacing carpet
Have you considered roll neoprene. It comes in different colors and thicknesses. Supplier should be easy to track down. Think wet suites

Re: Replacing carpet
One thought would those bathroom carpets. If you could figure out the manufacturer then maybe you could a larger size / custom cut. Those carpet are meant for wet environs. Just a thought.

Replacing carpet
We are looking to replace our carpet and prefer to have a foam back both for comfort and non-slip. Saw Mark’s post on Shaw Nuwave backed carpet but it appears that is no longer in production.

I know it violates your stated desire for a diaphragm pump, but I think the Marco gear pumps are the cat's meow. I think you'd be happy with a #3 or a #6.

Re: Fresh Water Pump
I don't think I'd go with 55psi. I've had both 25psi and 40psi ParMax 4's on board for the past seven years.
They are not super-long lived (but then again, they get ~lots~ of hours on them) and
