Peggie would probably recommend the Raritan Alantes.


Not necessarily...it depends on the size of the boat, whether there's
room for 19" bowl in the head, budget (which doesn't seem to be a factor
here), and whether the owners want simplicity and reliability or have to
have a toilet as close "to the one at home" as possible.

As for the tank, try
Ronco Plastics and get the biggest one you can fit!
http://www.ronco-plastics.com/. Have them fit a 1" vent fitting, and have
all the penetrations go through the top if possible. I have two pumpout
fittings with dip tubes that go to about 1/2" of the bottom. One goes to the
deck pumpout and the other to the Sealand T series diapharagm pump. That way
you don't need a Y valve. I'd suggest using nothing but Sealand Odorsafe
hose.


That's good advice...you saved me some typing.
