If $225 is a bit more than you want to spend, go with a Groco HF. It's
not as durable as a PH II, but you should get at least 5-7

Peggy, a boat I bought has a Raritan Compact head. I was about to buy a
service kit for it. But then wondered, do you know if I could swap in
the pump assembly from the successor, the Compact II?

Yep, you can...but it'll prob'ly cost you about the same as the complete
CPII if you shop hard.

Also, are you saying the PHII is not well made any more?

Nooo..whatever gave you THAT idea? If you re-read what what you quoted
above, you'll see that I said the Groco is not as durable as the PH II,
but still a much better choice than a Jabsco for about the same money.

If I rep[laced,
that was my leading contender.

And it should still be!


Thanks for any info. Many fond memories from the old Compuserve Sailing
Forum.

The OLYC was best online forum EVER!
