It is a simple, self-priming design: press down with the bottom of your foot to draw water, with no electrical hookup required. The angled top section is shaped for comfortable, easy operation, and the compact body is designed to install neatly in confined spaces where a full-size pump would not fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhale has been designing and manufacturing marine water pumps since the 1960s, and the Babyfoot continues that foot-pump design line as a simple, reliable solution for basic freshwater delivery. It connects to 1\/2 inch flexible hose for straightforward plumbing into an existing galley freshwater line, and it is also suited to use as a priming pump ahead of Whale in-line impeller electric pumps. The pump is built from a combination of acetal, neoprene, and nylon components, giving it a durable, corrosion-resistant construction for the marine environment. It delivers a maximum flow rate of 2.2 gallons per minute.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is strictly a freshwater, non-pressurized pump: it is not designed for use with pressurized water systems. It is intended for simple gravity-fed or hand-drawn freshwater delivery in the galley rather than as a shower or washdown pump.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Whale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e GP4618\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 766478461803\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Foot Operated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Acetal, Neoprene, Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.5 inches long x 4 inches wide x 2.75 inches high\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Flow Rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.2 gallons per minute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Source:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHose Connection:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/2 inch flexible hose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Freshwater galley delivery; priming pump for Whale in-line impeller electric pumps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNot Recommended For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pressurized water systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Whale Babyfoot GP4618 used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The GP4618 is a foot operated galley pump used to deliver freshwater on demand in a boat galley by pressing down with your foot, with no electrical connection needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the GP4618 be used with a pressurized water system?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The Whale Babyfoot GP4618 is not designed for use with pressurized systems; it is intended for simple, non-pressurized freshwater delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the GP4618 work with saltwater?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Whale Babyfoot GP4618 is intended for freshwater galley use rather than saltwater service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size hose does the GP4618 connect to?\u003c\/strong\u003e It connects to 1\/2 inch flexible hose for installation into a galley freshwater line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the maximum flow rate of the GP4618 pump?\u003c\/strong\u003e The GP4618 delivers a maximum flow rate of 2.2 gallons per minute.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat materials is the Babyfoot pump made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e The GP4618 is constructed from acetal, neoprene, and nylon components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the GP4618 weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Whale Babyfoot GP4618 weighs 0.6 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the dimensions of the GP4618 pump?\u003c\/strong\u003e The GP4618 measures 5.5 inches long by 4 inches wide by 2.75 inches high.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the GP4618 be used as a priming pump for an electric pump?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the GP4618 is designed to work as a priming pump ahead of Whale in-line impeller electric pumps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the GP4618 self-priming?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Whale Babyfoot GP4618 is a self-priming foot pump, making it easy to install and use in a simple freshwater system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included with the GP4618 pump?\u003c\/strong\u003e The GP4618 is supplied as the complete Babyfoot foot operated pump unit with 1\/2 inch flexible hose connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the GP4618 a genuine Whale product?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the GP4618 is manufactured by Whale, backed by a 5 year warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Whale","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49028231332059,"sku":"WHA-GP4618","price":60.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/GP4618__72623.1722488530.500.750.jpg?v=1785165774","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/whale-babyfoot-gp4618-foot-operated-galley-pump-manual-freshwater-pump-with-1-2-inch-hose-connection","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
