I found the website of the really great marine head installed on a racing trimaran that's visiting Charleston this week.
You actually found the website for the US distributor. Lavac marine toilets are made by Blakes a UK mfr whose marine toilets are considered the best in the world: http://www.blakes-lavac-taylors.co.uk/index.htm
The Lavac has long been a favorite of live-aboard blue water cruisers for decades...and In the days when most of the people here were live-aboard cruisers, you'd prob'ly have been the last person here to discover it. The Lavac has never become very popular in the US among "weekend warriors" for two reasons: very limited parts availability and price--$350-$400 depending on the rate of exchange...plus, it's a bit intimidating to small children and landlubber guests compared ot pumping a piston-cylinder pump.
