For spares, 4 duckbliis should cover you.
For cruising in remote areas, water valve, bowl seal and gasket, bellows kit.
And if you want to be completely self sufficient, an anti-siphon valve, vacuum pressure switch and pump motor.
I carry all these parts but have not had to do repairs on the Vacu-Flush while cruising.
As I stated earlier, servicing a marine toilet and proactively replacing parts before failure will insure a trouble free cruise.
A bonus to carrying spare toilet parts is there is always someone with a failed system, due to lack of proactive maintenance, looking for spare toilet parts while cruising. I sell spare Vacu-Flush parts to these boaters at a markup higher than usual but less than what some of the marine stores in Canada charge. I carry the most needed Dometic, Rariton and Jabsco toilet parts on Sandpiper for that reason. I've saved summer cruises for a lot of boaters over the years.
