After thinking about it some more, I realized we ended up buying a
new pump, because the old one was pretty shot. We were very happy
that we could find the same make and model. The covering where the
mechanism daylights in the cockpit was slightly different, but it
worked out okay. We tested it by putting the hose in bucket of water,
but didn't have to prime it.
