waveline dinghy pump

[pcleary]

i have a waveline dinghy made in 2010 and the pump adaptor broke i went to source a new one or a new pump only to find that waveline had changed the valves on their dinghys and that the new adaptors didnt fit the old valves and they didnt have old adaptors or pumps so my question is does anyone have an old one for sale or has anyone come across this problem and solved it id appreciate any help

Hello,
I was in a similar situation. I also have a waveline which is similar age. Mine has a twist lock style fitting, but the pipe and pump were both past their best. I bought a Bravo 9 foot pump ( has a low and high pressure side) and then just used the supplied adapters and pumped it up. It doesn't twist and lock now but doesn't blow the pipe off either. The valves are self sealing on my dinghy so it works fine. The pump is brilliant the dingy is now so firm - 100% better!

Hope that helps.
Mat

yes ive had the same but easily over come.
I had to replace two broken valves with a different type which I believe are halkey Roberts type.
If you have bought a new twist lock valve end then just add an extra cap 'o' ring seal to the new twist lock end it will make up the differing shaft length of the new twist lock end.
