Search through the major UK online chandlers for prices. Lavac spares can be very expensive. I reduced a potential £400 bill to about £150 by buying various parts from different online chandlers. With Lavac stuff it pays to shop around. My loo is the Zenith which is now a redundant model.

Have you checked for seat and lid alignment with top surface of bowl?
If these are not aligned correctly new seals wont cure the leak, align by adjusting the height setting of hinges.

Thanks that's a very good tip.Don't know how I didn't think of that.Back to the boat.And in case I need some I'll follow the tips given before and shop around,these things are expensive.

Pull the seals out & clean them up. Only replace if they have really hardened with age. Hissing leaks can also occur at any of the joints, especially on the intake side where air is drawn in under the vacuum & no lquid escapes.
Also, make sure the inlet is clean & clear, lots of Barney Kulls or limescale/ corrosion partially blockingthe intake can lead high pressure & low flow. Oh, and don't forget that the vacuum release pin hole will hiss. Finally, don't kneel on the lid to create a seal, the seat or lid will probably crack & the replacement cost will make your eyes water.
