Ericson 27 Composting Toilet

[Seawitch]

Hello! I am way past due for my head hoses to be changed and I was thinking about just switching the whole thing out with a composting toilet. Has anyone with a 27 went down this road? If so, could you let me know what toilet model worked for you? The platform the head sits on is on the small side so I am looking to see what has worked for anyone that has made the change, and if it has been successful upgrade.
Cheers!
