I am an idiot Vic, help me

[navman]

Vic, I just checked out boatfix for the first time for parts for my crown head. I thought I ordered joker valves and ended up with joker vent valves. Something that is totally useless to me.
Mind pointing me in the right direction?
Thanks
Brad

http://www.boatfix.com/bykeywordnew2.asp?textfield=c253&texttype=2 On the top Search on the BoatFix home page, (Mfr's part #) simply type in the part # C253 and hit return. It'll take you right to it. Or, type in Raritan Joker Valve, and it'll take you to a page with several choices. In this case, the top one (C253) is the correct one.

Call BoatFix (609) 625-9424, and go to extension 201 or 204 and explain that you need to return what you already have, that it was ordered by mistake. They "should" take it back, especially if you're nice to them.

And no, you're not an idiot - half the time I can't find what I'm looking for, either. Of course I'm on the inside track - BoatFix is only about 4 miles from my house... I can go ask.

No-one with enough sense to own a boat is an idiot...

Thanks Vic , What the hell is a joker vent valve used for then? I now own 2.

Opened help ticket and ordered correct parts today, thanks again.

It's the vent valve that goes into the top of a vented loop fitting (I think).
