I only look at Catalina Direct as a last resort. My first call after checking the West Marine website (I am a part time employee so pricing is usually very favorable) is the Catalina factory parts department. If they have the part or can get it the pricing beats CD by a lot. I saved almost $2,000 buying a complete set of cushions (exterior and interior) after Polar Star almost sunk when the anchor locker drain hose broke at the through hull.
In one case where I needed a vent from a company they no longer buy from they willingly told me to call and gave me a phone number.
Just my opinion

Kevin - Did you try the factory for the aqua lift muffler? When ours died on our old C320, we sent the old one to Catalina and had a replacement in a few weeks. But that was many years ago.
