You want the MAN 1200s. 1000s aren't enough HP to make the hull shine, get on top, ride right. Sunseeker and most Euro builders aren't known for...
Galleons are not built that great. The 66' Sunseeker is a GREAT sea boat. I put close to 10,000 NM's on one. 26 knot cruise, good range, great...
I recommended he replace the 25+ year old system with a modern one that he could get down the street. I'm not repairing any 25 year old head...
Stop tap dancing around. Locate where the part is for sale, what it costs, if they'll ship it here, how long it takes to get it, and what he...
It's a POS because its a 25 year old system. I am half Italian, I can call Italian parts POS if I feel like it, and some rightfully are. ANY 25...
No, it's because I've been down this road many times before. And, almost every time I've tried to repair old junk it's bitten me in the ass....

RUN, aside from the unknown builder, parts are near impossible to get for 12v396 MTU's and super expensive.
Heat shrinks ARE that much better, in addition to keeping the connection dry and corrossion free, they also provide a secondary bite on the wire...
The regular macerator pumps work IF you add the 2 extra ductbills to the otherside. The threads are reverse thread on the fittings.
That OR rudder bearings.
50' Flybridge. That's what the market needs, 2 good staterooms and heads, fast. Nobody makes one anymore and it's a natural progression as a 42'...
I'd replace the pump too, as the bearings going might be the reason the seal went, or the seal is old and will start leaking fuel next, and it's...
If it's oil, the oil seal is leaking, NOT the fuel seal. Keep an eye on it, and fix it when you get a chance.
Buy a new pump.
Call a professional or take the vessel to a boat yard to have fixed. Steering is nothing that you want to mess with if you're not knowledgeable....
MTU's take the cake on costly to maintain by a long shot.
