[C320-list] Fresh Water Pump Replacement.

[P.F. Ross]

Ian, perhaps you have not removed the door/drawer assembly from the sink
counter.  I replaced my pump some time ago and once I removed that
assembly, I found plenty of room to work.

There are six (IIRC) screws in the face of the door/drawer assembly that
hold it to the counter.  After those are removed, the entire piece
(including drawers) can be slid outward.  Makes it easier if you remove the
companionway steps first.  Voila!  Access to most everything underneath the
sink!

Regards,
