No water to taps

There is no water coming out of any taps when I turn them on. They worked fine last time I used the boat. The galley pump switch is on and theres water in the tank. As this is my first boat (FV 250), I have no idea where to start with this, so all advice is very welcome 😀

    Can you hear the fresh water pump running?  If not it’s electrical. If it runs and no water, then I would check the fittings between the tank and pump.  I’ve found them loose after the marina winterized my boat.

    Also check the strainer at the pump which can be removed and clean.

    If you can hear the pump working when you turn the galley pump switch on, try filling the water tank right up to the top. I mean right up to the filler neck. If the water level is above the pump, it helps the pump to prime. Turn a tap on and it should work.

    I've not had this issue with my head sink but I've had it twice with my galley sink,   the strainer on the outlet gets clogged/corroded.


    Remove it and turn on the water,  clean or replace outlet if it works.
