42 fountain questions
hello , my 45 excalibur got wrecked in hurricane sandy
Im looking at a 42 fountain lightning and I have 3 questions
1 - how fast will it be with 500hp's
2 - it only has a porta potty and I want to convert it to a flushing toilet with a pump out , is it doable/feaseable
3 - it doesnt have a generator , would it be difficult to add it ?
thanks in advance

Adding a flush toilet and generator can be done. Depends on what you consider hard work.

An option for your 2nd question - They make a pump-out porta potty with electric flush now. It mounts right where your current potty is and has a hose that mounts to a thru-hull fitting for the pump-out. The holding tank holds 5.5 gallons of waste. They actually look pretty cool and it would be much easier than installing a true pump-out system. Just an option.
