You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

If it is inside the boat, why not use regular hardware store fixtures, you'll have a much wider selection, and the interior of a boat isn't that hostile an environment. Go down to Home Depot or Lowe's and see what they have to offer. As long as this is a pressurized FRESH water system, it shouldn't much matter that the fixture isn't a marine fixture.

If you are talking about a head/lavatory faucet with a pull-up mixer valve that sends the water to the hand held shower, look online at RV places, such as RVDirect. Note that the one I got from them was 4" on center, which is typical for compact installations, I think.

Ditto that Pappy...we used standard fixtures to replace all our outlets/fixtures with zero problems. We had a lot more choice and saved a lot of money over marine stuff. Just take your tape measure down to the home depot!

I've been looking at both HD & lowes online with no luck, only 4" & 8", maybe I go there and look in person.
This is very simular to to what we have now, I've email this company to find out what the centers are.

Another alternative is to drill new holes and cover with either the fixture or with a starboard plate.

We went through the same issue a few years ago when I had to replace my shower control. Cause I needed that particular style as well we did this faucet [10411] from scandvik cause could not find any better alternatives [did the home depo/lowes thing as well]. I think they will put different knobs on if you ask.
