Hi,

I have a leaking pipe under the head sink and will probably need to replace the whole pipe.

It's connected to the Jabsco pump then exits under the board holding the two pumps and goes into the bilge area.
Does anyone know what it's connected to?
I'm thinking maybe the outside shower or the water heater, but I'm insure.

Hi,

I am guessing a bit but the layout looks similar to our 350 where we have two Jabsco pumps side by side, one is the internal shower drain pump and the other the fresh water supply to taps etc. It is easy enough to turn on the shower drain pump or open a tap and see which pump starts running.

The water feed pump from the tank will have a pressure switch mounted on it.   Its outlet may runs to somewhere near the galley sink where it will then split to feed the various cold water outlets and the calorifier.   

The shower pump normally does not have a pressure switch.  The outlet from the shower pump will probably have an anti-syphon loop on it reaching up to the deck before looping down and linking up with the head basin outlet pipe.

I am sure you will have done all the appropriate investigations to bring you to this conclusion.

I also had what looked like a leaking pipe in that area which turned out to be a faulty cartridge in the tap above causing a leak which appeared on the pipes below.

Just a thought.
