You don't say what boat you have. I wonder is it an American boat?

Either way see if there is a small mesh screen in the end of the tap or shower fitting. If so it could be blocked up with lime scale or other foreign matter stopping water flow.

It is more likely on a tap rather than the shower but worth a look.

Most boats will have a pair of isolating valves for external shower/wash basin.
These may be the types with an obvious handle to turn on and off but some may be the sort that you have to use screwdriver to turn valve.
On a friends boat the "valve" was incorporated in a pipe "T" junction.
It was well hidden and vitually impossible to spot the valve was in fact present.
Previous owner had turned it off,years previously.
