CS34 Problems with my Head

For those of you who don't know a boat's toilet is called a head.

The manual head on Still Time has been working without issue this season.  However, it has been getting harder and harder to pump the "chunks of chocolate thunder".  Walter had even commented that the head is hard to pump.

Well this morning after doing my morning doodie, the head would not pump.  I could NOT get business all the way down.

I checked the tank monitor and the holding tank is only half full.

Tonight it was off to the pumpout dock to see if that would fix it.  The pumpout went quickly, but the head is still not pumping.  Tried to use a plunger, but NO WAY!  Thought of getting some liquid plumber, but the instruction say not to use on toilets or with a plunger.  Either the pipe between the head the holding tank is clogged, or the head has lost its ability to pump.  Either way, it is going to be a shitty job fixing it.
