    Midnight Express Toilet Servicing

    Well, most toilets in a boat have the brand name on them someplace. Get that and and serial numbers off it. Then you can find a rebuild/seal kit. As for the freshwater pump, look in the area of the freshwater tank or the engine room. What issues you having?

    Stalls in Reverse with Trim Up

    First don't trim to high, but it sounds like your lower shift cable is getting stiff. It normally would not be an issue if the cable was good, but it's really hard on the u-joints,

    1973 ISLANDER REFIT

    Need guidance about water tank on Crest pontoon houseboat

    You need to replace that mess with some pex plumbing. Looks like some of that is garden hose. Not designed for drinking water or permanent installations. Also that wire nut is a no-no. Abyc standards don't allow them on boats. They can vibrate loose and cause a short, and are not water...
