Nick,
Don't give up on the Sealand...
It is true it needs 10.5" from the center of the hole to the wall, but not on the
floor. The pedestal the bowl rests on only needs about half that. At the WIDEST
point it needs 10.5. I'd guess you've could go at least 9" up from the floor before
the bowl really starts to spread out.
Sounds like it is time to call them...
