That's funny. I changed a joker valve friday. (edit) I stand corrected it was saturday. It was iterally a 5 minute (or less) job, not counting the drive to West Marine to buy the valve. Had to match up the old one as I wasn't sure of the part number.

At least it was YOUR boat for awhile if you know what I mean...I had to do a macerator pump on a boat my father bought years back right after he bought it as it was not working at the time of purchase. That was extra yucky!
