[C320-list] Pressure water pump noise

[Mike Rauh]

I was able to reduce some of the noise from my water pump by using leftover material that I had purchased to line my engine compartment.  I glued the soundproofing material to the bottom side of the wood cover directly over the pump.  It helped reduce some of the noise.  I have a Jabsco pump.

   Pressure pump (not bilge pump which is very noisy) is quite quiet on
   Luffin Life, need to be in aft cabin to hear it, no noise dampening
   required.

     My pressure pump is real noisy. I know it is because of the
     location. Has anyone come up with a vibration dampener?
