Dear family and friends today my mixing elbow broke in half despite deep cleaning and decarbonising 9 months a go. Any idea where to buy SS316 one?

Any suggestions welcome. I was lucky that elbow broke on the mooring (not mine but it will be ok till tomorrow morning until we tow the boat back).
Thank you

Found this one

SS316 is the way to go.

I think that's what we got. Stupidly, I'd never checked the old one and now the boat is significantly faster and cooler under motor. Ever since we bought her she has seemed a bit underpowered but now she's tonking along. Hopefully the SS one won't bind so we can clean it every year.

Made the order on last Friday got the kit on Monday. After 30 min of suffering (bolts are not accessible) engine is working like a baby. A big difference I would say. This SS316 kit is worth any penny !
