boat sewage systems
 
Hi,

I have a 1988 Carver Montego 2757,
the head in the boat is electric and I believe by
Jebsco? I have had nothing but problems with it
blowing fuses. I would really like to get it looked
over and fixed.

My Questions are the following:

1. Recommendations for repair of current system
2. Replacement suggestions (local boater mainly
weekend use) not going to get a ton of use.
3. Suggestions for local persons to do the work
(Edgewater MD Area South River)

As always thanks in advance for your help

Paul

Go to rec.boats.cruising. Ping for Peggy. She is the 'head' master. She knows
what's needed to know about heads.

There are some who are jealous of her knowledge. They may try to spooof you. Be
warned.

Yank it out and put in a manual head.

You can buy a "BIC lighter" head on sale at West Marine so cheaply that
it almost doesn't pay to buy the rebuild kit. With light and
intelligent use, you'll get a few years' worth of
flushing for less than the cost to hire a marine electrician to sort
out your current problem.

If you only have one head on a boat, it should be as basic and
trouble-free as possible. The folks who think pumping is unseemly may
not need to go out on your boat. :-)

Elaborate systems should be lmited to vessels with more than one head.

I had a 2000 year model, but sold it for a HUGE profit, which I spent
on paving my vast driveway.
