As many of you know we have a factory installed Jabsco 12v macerator pump plumbed into the gray tank only (I have one large tank that has an internal wall separating the black tank from the gray tank). A couple of weeks ago, while pumping out the gray tank into the nearby forest the pump froze up, and gave up the ghost. While searching on Ebay for a replacement which costs $124+ new I found an alternative one called "Chugger" for $65 plus $20 shipping. It is rated at 9.43 gallons per minute....certainly fast enough for my tastes. Anyway, I ordered one and installed it today. Can't speak for its potential longevity, but I only have occasion to use this pump a few times a month, so we'll see how it holds up. Here is a link:
