Default Toilet replacement

I am ready to put my money down and buy a used Trailmanor. With that said I also plan on replacing stock toilet with something like the Dometic 711.
Not finding anything on line can one still get a toilet like this?
Second question, is it vented and if not is it safe?
Thanks

I was also going to replace the Tedford. I looked everywhere and called a lot of places, including the one members had said carried the SeaLand. It turns out this model is discontinued. It does not seem that anyone has any stock. The only place that had any was TM. I bought one from them. They only have Bone. I even called SeaLand, they said the replacement toilet does not come with a center bottom drain as an option. A couple of the vendors I called said they had looked at the new model and based on how it is molded there is no way to retro fit these for a bottom drain.

Not sure how long TM will sell their stock since they are now looking for a new toilet as well.

You can still get the SeaLand 711 M-28 for the boats, and have a bottom drain spun into the tank. Or you can build your own Poor Man’s SeaLand, usually for less than half the price of the Dometic and get a better actual toilet.

In all my calling around, ARDEMCO, was the only company that said they could get the Marine tank. It was in Beige only. He told me SeaLand only had a very limited supply. He has ordered 2 just to have in stock. With cutting the hole and spin welding it was a little over $700 just for the tank. So maybe the poor man's SeaLand Is the better option.

That’s less than I payed for a Dometic SeaLand setup ~5 years ago from Scamp.

Default Who has recently went with the Poor man Sealand install?

It is looking like this really the only option unless you want to spend big money installing a black tank. I have found the tank but which toilet to mount to it?

You found the Dometic tank? The problem with matching up a toilet is it used a four-bolt flange and most RV toilets are two-bolt.

Default Icon bottom drain

I went back and looked at photo, sure enough 4 hole not 2.

Thanks for pointing that out.

There are 4-to-2 hole adapters out there but I don’t know the details on whether they would work on top of a tank vs the floor. Or if they add a lot of height to the toilet.

PMS is definitely an option, too.
