Use the newer version: Toilet Flush Switch Jabsco 37047-2000. Check me on this, but I believe it will be plug-n-play with even the screw holes lining up. Shop for best price. CW Bill Rouse Amel

Hey folks has anyone identified a good replacement for the JABSCO toilet wall switches? Both of ours are cracked, beaten up, and have seen better days. Looked around online a bit, didn't see anything

THX Matt for your real on-site feedback Enjoy Turkey and fair winds Ulrich

We are currently in Turkey, cruising from Finike to Kusadasi. Been in Turkey almost a year. Now between Mamaris and Didim. Yes, no dumping of blackwater, but pump out facilities are ubiquitous. Never

I am now back in Greece; but spent the last two months in Turkey. Fethiye Bay area is now very crowded. There are thousands of boats, many are power boats. I have to say that it is not as clean as

Thanks folks, I had a suspicion that the best option was a hole in the locker. A zip tool was not on my radar rather a hole saw. Thanks for the information. Tony SM#443-GRAND CRU

Tony, I installed the Altantic Towers arch on Cream Puff and ran into the same problem. I could not get a wrench on the bolts for that forward leg on the port side.

Ben, Replacing the grounding strap is very simple . There are no drastic measures needed. Please review the archives . Once you make a new strap it is a 1-2 hour job. Fair Winds Eric Kimberlite

Hi all, I have recently purchased an Atlantic Towers - tower in a box for Grand Cru. The install looks fairly simple except for one area - the port side where the propane gas locker is fitted in the

Ben, There are two separate issues here. First is the need to reconnect the keel to the bonding system. That is an annoying job, but by no means beyond the reach of a normal human! A half-inch
