Manual Marine head ?

Has anyone replaced their electric head with a manual head.
Is this possible at all.?
Will there be a problem because the holding tank is above the toilet.?
Looking forward to some information,
Thanks

Refrigerator drain

I have a problem with the drain in the refrigerator. Water seems to not drain. Does anybody know were the drain hose is going to?
Does it drain in the bildge or to the outside?
I can't find the hose and it is very difficult to get to the hose.
Thanks for the info

new lids for freezer

I purchased hull # 36 a few months ago from the first owner and it came with new lids for the freezer. But they were not installed. Does anybody know what was the reason they were replaced by Catalina. Is there a safety reason or just a better fit?? Thanks for any info on this Pieter # 36 Vancouver BC

Re: Dinette to double berth- Edge support?

I purchased a catalina 350 # 36 but there are no short legs on board to make a dubbel bed in the salon, cushions and bench are in the boat. The salon bed does not look very confortable to me. Has anyone slept on this at all? Does any one has a contact number to order the short legs from Catalina? Th...
