Don't invite folks over and save $400.... :)

Who was the person who broke the pump, the Incredible Hulk?! That was one mighty 'up-stroke'....

Subject: [C320-list] Jabsco Compact Electric Head

I had a rather unpleasant experience sailing on July 4th. One of my guests 
managed to break the head while pumping. On the up-stroke he completely 
separated the top of the pump assembly tearing out six screws in the 
process. Since the price of a new pump is only a few dollars less than the 
price of a new toilet I decided to replace. I removed the old Jabsco compact 
manual toilet and went to West Marine where a sales person highly 
recommended the Jabsco Compact Electric Toilet. This is an extra $400 over 
the manual model but I started to think that it might not be a bad idea. To 
be honest, I am getting tired of explaining the workings of a marine toilet 
to guests. Everyone knows how to push a button. I certainly don't want a 
repeat of the July 4th fiasco. So here are my questions, has anyone 
installed this electric toilet on their 320? If so, are you happy with it? I 
notice that all the photos of this toilet show the motor on the back of the 
toilet, is it adjustable so that it will work to the right (while facing the 
toilet) where there is more room on my boat? Any and all advice will be 
greatly appreciated.
