Has anyone changed to fresh water flush. If so, exactly what parts were needed. I have look online for a Jabsco fresh water flush kit, but can't seem to find the necessary parts. Any help and pics would be a great help. Thanks
Wayne replied to Wayne's discussion Anchor upgrade in the group Beneteau 40 & 43"Peter, thank you for your input.
