Head line news: New model Marine Elegance toilet

Rariton Toilet

Feb 10, 2022

New for 2022, Raritan Engineering has introduced a Comfort Height Elongated Bowl version of its Marine Elegance marine electric toilet . Retaining all the features and modern styling of the original model, it now adds a level of comfort and powerful flushing typically associated with residential toilets.

The Marine Elegance Comfort Height Elongated Bowl is made from gleaming and easy-to-clean white vitreous china. Hidden hardware preserves its clean, modern appearance.

The 14-1/2″ W x 21-5/8″ L seat with soft-close lid is a comfortable 16-1/2″ off the floor. This not only delivers comfort, but makes it easier to get on and off, and steady oneself while the boat is moving.

Three plumbing configurations are available with the toilet. The Remote Pump model allows the user to draw in outside water for flushing. With the Pressurized Water Model, the Marine Elegance Comfort Height Elongated Bowl toilet uses water with a minimum pressure/flow of 5 gpm and a maximum pressure of 150 psi. The SeaFresh option allows users to change between onboard freshwater or outside raw water with the flip of a switch.

Exceptionally quiet at a mere 63dB, a powerful, yet low-power internal shredder with stainless steel blades virtually eliminates clogging.

There are four flush options. With the Smart Handle, a residential-style side lever provides timed operation and independent control of water and discharge by pushing or pulling. The wall-mounted Smart Toilet Control is fully programmable to optimize water use; adding the Wireless Remote Bluetooth Control eliminates wiring through bulkheads and cabinetry, plus programming can be done up to 50′ away. Raritan’s Multifunction Flush Panel enables momentary operation of fill, flush and discharge.

Available in 12V, 24V and 120/240V AC, the toilet is straightforward to install. The device has a flat back and a 10-1/4″ W x 16-1/2″ D footprint, and an overall size of 21-5/8″ L x 14-1/2″ W x 18-1/2″ H. Raritan’s Marine Elegance Comfort Height Elongated Bowl toilet has an MSRP of US$1,595.

Nimbus 365 Coupe – A real long-stay cruising boat for exploring

By Andy Adams

There is no shortage of fun and exciting new boat designs hitting the market, but for the last few years these have been mainly outboard-powered day boats. Some are day cruisers; some are centre console fishing boats or designed for tow sports. A new live-aboard cabin boat has become a rare item these days.

So when I heard that Pride Marine in Orillia, Ontario, had a Nimbus 365 Coupe in the water, I jumped at the chance to get out on it.

Tahiti—Updates from Paradise

By Zuzana Prochaska

I’ve been to Tahiti seven times—six on charter and once as crew for a couple of yachties. Over the 25 years that I’ve been visiting, it’s changed dramatically. Yet, inexplicably, it has also stayed the same.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:

…you understand now why you came this way.
