Hunter 335 Head Manufacturer

[Brent Headberg]

I just recently became the owner of a 1990 Hunter 335. Does anybody know the Manufacturer and Model of the head that was installed in this boat at time of manufacturer? The nameplate is no longer readable, and I need to replace the pump handle assembly.Brent

Buy a new head!

By the time you purchase new parts for these old heads you can have a new one with a warranty. These old heads are basically throw away.If you have the room, take a look at the Raritan heads like the Cricket. Other wise there are other ones that that you can purchase for $125-150.

Original was Jabsco

But after 12 years it's unlikely to still be the original toilet unless the previous owner(s) rarely used the boat...the averge lifespan of a Jabsco manual toilet is about 5 years. So, as Steve said, it's not worth putting ANY money into. You can replace it with another Jabsco for $99 if you catch it on sale...for about twice that, you can have a Raritan PH II or Cricket that'll give you a couple of decades of good service with minimal maintenance. And there are a couple in between as well as a few that cost up to $1,000...marine toilets are like anything else--you get what you pay for.
