Raritan’s New Marine Toilet Revolutionizes Boating Experience

CABIN-RARITANTOILET125

CABIN-RARITANTOILET250Never before have so many innovative features been combined into one revolutionary toilet and at such an affordable price.  From Raritan comes the most advanced toilet in its class, the state-of-the-art Marine Elegance.  Employing new Vortex-Vac Flush technology, the Marine Elegance creates a vacuum in the bowl for the quietest and most efficient flushing action of any comparable toilet on the market.

Performing at a noise level less than 63 decibels, the sophisticated toilet ensures a sound night sleep for guests aboard.  Incredibly compact, it has a small footprint of just 8-1/2" x 9-3/4", making installations in tight spaces simple.

A fully-programmable Raritan Smart Flush Control gives users four flush options for maximum flexibility. The Marine Elegance can be flushed normally or with a low water option.  An environmentally-friendly function helps conserve precious water onboard and extends the useful capacity of most holding tanks.

We met with Neptunus Managing Director Jan Willem De Jong this past fall to take the new Neptunus 650F out in Lake Ontario.

Clearing Pillsbury Sound, surrounded by voluptuous emerald mountains as the ferry sliced through royal blue waters, I was struck by the unspoiled ambiance of St. John, the island gliding past our starboard beam and the irresistible charm of a village called Cruz Bay visible from our quarter stern.
