The first project we tackled when we bought Slacker in 2000 was to redo the sanitation system. New tank, hoses, valves and a new toilet. Over the years our head had served us well. Never clogging, never leaking always faithful. Two years ago we noticed some cracks in the plastic around the pump area. No problem, a little JB Weld and it was good as new. Last year we brought down a new pump assembly and went to switch it out with the cracked one. More cracks were found. Not good. More JB Weld and we made it through the rest of the season. This year we brought down a new head.
Now to the hard part. What do you do with the old one? Marine heads aren’t something you can just run down to the marine store and buy here in Mexico so I figured there must be a market. The head was advertised on our local VHF net every morning but there were no takers. On Saturday we had a swap meet and I lugged it up along with some other stuff I was convinced someone would need. No takers. What to do?
