Why do people want a quiet pump??
That noise is the warning that something is not shut off well or you have a leak you need to find.
Having grown up (OK - gotten old) aboard boats on tidal water, the last thing you need is to have the silent pump run and pump all you potable water overboard.
We turn the pump off when underway, but if we are not and I hear that pump run, I go and find out why it ran.
