That is an excellent point, and it has happened to us before and then I was happy to have that second head. Of course I then replace the terrible head with a decent one that won't fail.

I am curious, both about the NP45 with the option of two heads, but also on other 40+ boats with two heads, do you have two holding tanks then as well? I do on my boat and it is a huge pain. I have two pumpout fittings, one near the bow and one near the stern. Worse, one is on Starboard and one is on Port! It makes pump outs a royal pain.
