We're looking at a boat with these heads, probably new. However, the piping
(apparently) needed for them, and the pump, both, on the wall, is very
off-putting to Lydia.

That they're part of a recent refit is an annoyance, but my stance is that
to replace marine heads is merely background noise in a purchase
consideration.
So, how big a deal is it to swap these out for the more typical pumpers?

Weelll...the good news is, you can prob'ly get a good price for
relatively new Lavacs on eBay. Sell 'em separately and be sure to
include the pumps. Someone here might even want 'em.

Since you have to re-hose anyway, it's not that much more of a job to
replace the toilets. In fact, that's the easiest part of the job.

As long as you have to do it, now would also be the best time to make
any needed changes (if any)in the layout of the sanitation system. I'll
be glad to help you do it if you want to get with me via email.
