    What’s the best way to switch from Sea Water intake to fresh water?
    This is for a 1977 Hatteras 58’ Yacht Master. Tia

    There are a few, after market water solenoids that you could make work.
    If your still 32v, some extra tricks will be involved.

    However, lots of progress has been made in the 47 years since your head was installed.
    A whole new head with fresh water supply can make your experience more pleasant.
    The full sized Raritan Elegance or Jabsco Deluxe comes to mind quickly.
