1983 10M Aft Cabin Sport Express with Arch

Post by Zorba »

Why is it so hard to find replacement parts for these older boats. My Norcold refrigerator died several years ago, I can't find another that fits in the same space(same size) and then my bigger issue is the head. I have 2 Mansfield 806 toilets, they both have hairline cracks, and I have tried getting a replacement everywhere. Last year Mike from Aquastar, sold me one that he said was a replacement. The stinking bowl's circumference was 12" bigger. No way would it work without totally dismantling the bathroom. I love my old boat, where can I find salvage parts for this old girl?

Just adding to my comments, As far as the refrigerator that is compliant on all boat brands it seems even much newer boats. Is your a mid-cabin or the actual aft cabin express? ( there has been some confusion before on this) The aft cabin express is very rare. Is the rear cabin behind the engines or forward of them? Photo?

Update, you said 2 heads so likely an aft-express. Love to see some photos

Try marinesan.com, I got all my parts for my 806 from them. At the time, they had an 806 bowl (I don't think it's a Mansfield anymore), but they had a replacement for mine as well.

Best of luck!
