Need to replace the head in my new boat. Practical Sailor has not
done a review that I can find. So I will let this group of practical

Thank you for your opinion. - Allen

The Raritan is the only one I have extensive experience with, but I've found it
to be amazingly effective and reliable. It's actually better than a land
toilet. I've never had a clog fail to clear by simply shutting off the water
intake. (Not that clogs happen very often though.) Normal toilet paper is no
problem either.

Even in a smaller/cheaper boat this is probably the first upgrade I'd make.
Manual heads are actually *less* reliable than this one.
