The flip side is painting bronze props MAY cause crevice crack erosion and cause blades to snap off... I've seen it happen, but probably only a problem on higher stress props on high performance boats.
I use iPad with Navionics, sun is OK under wheelshelter. Wouldn't go out without paper backup and second GPS.
The big issue I found that caused problems is in a bouncy sea.... a touch screen is almost impossible to use.... you can't hit the right spot with your finger!!! I'd much prefer a...
What you are looking for is a 3-way valve... much depends on the dia of the pipework.

"Vanish" stain removing bar soap. Not the spray...... the hard bar of soap.... stunning results.... but can take a bit of the shine off new vinyl.
It can also be used to wash in salt water......
The occasional challenger of replacing an SL400 with a Jabsco is the SL400 is quite a low profile toilet and in some installations replacing with a Jabsco is a problem. If the SL400 is mounted on a "shelf", the replacement Jabsco will be too high for comfort.
