GRO sells, I believe, only Henderson pumps which are quite expensive. 
I purchased mine through them. The Guzzler is rated higher and is 
cheaper but I haven't compared the two side by side so can't say if 
it is indeed better. I'd love to hear if someone has compared them as 
I need to buy a second pump for a different boat.

GRO may be selling other pumps now as well though the weren't when I 
got mine several years back. In any case, they do sell alot of nice 
stuff.

There is a great articles on installing a foot pump at:
