Default adapted "shower" for 290 enticer

We have had this boat for 2.5yrs, (1990) the previous owner redid all the interior and changed complete cabin layout. There is no longer any locker or sink, in its place is more storage and a really big fridge which i run from my inverter. All the water tank, plumbing and pump is still in the boat, thinking about running some hose to the rear and use the fresh water tank to take a shower on the swim platform while overnighting. I have never seen the pump run but it does work. My question is this, what kind of pump is this and will it have enough pressure to run to rear of boat into some kind of shower head? This seems to be a good idea and should work, at the very least we can take a shower with clean water. How big is the water tank in these boats??

It uses the same "on demand" pump found on most RV's. It is under a compartment beneath the sink cabinet (or closet) on my enticer. I believe the capacity is 10 gals. Good luck......

"on demand" it won't hurt the pump if i turn it on but the water isn't flowing?? maybe the pump has a pressure bypass until you turn on the water?

got all the plumbing hooked up and the pump works great, turns out the tank is roughly 6 gal. I thought it would be bigger!
