    Anyone know where to get them? I see that West Marine stocks a few, but I need a place with a greater selection- mine has the output to starboard (180 degrees is how Shurflo describes it) 24 v.

    It's been a pleasure replacing the holding tank macerator....:(

    I feel your pain! I replaced holding tank and hoses three years ago. NOT fun.

    Hi Cracker
    I would call various yacht chandlers in FT Lauderdale and get quotes for your parts.
    People so often think that they automatically charge you 10% or what ever on top, but truth is they can buy wholesale and they know where the deals are and sometimes sell it to you below market value and sometimes with free delivery. Money saved left and right being smart about it.
    You can feel free to PM me and I will tell you who I like to use for getting quotes and parts.

    Shurflo sells pumps with the outlet on the other side ... look at the catalog for the "180 degree" pump, contact Shurflo to ask which distributor or retailer has one in stock.

    Thanks. I was able to track down a macerator and the holding tank is evacuating like a champ! Thanks for the help everyone.
