Title: Commanders Head
Post by: Steve Richardt on May 16, 2002, 10:02:08 PM
Our commanders head has had it's through the hull intake removed.  Are there on board supply tanks availible?  What locations should be considered?

Thank You

Since direct discharge heads are illegal(unless you have a Lectra/San) just about everywhere but 3 miles off shore I would go another route like a porti potti unless you have a holding tank.If you do just install another thru hull for the intake.

Thank You,

There is a black water blader, I was not sure I could use a frest water intake.

Fresh water intake is fine, and fully legal.  That is the way my boat is rigged, and the only way I know of doing it.  West Marine has a small pamphlet on the legal ways to hook up a plumbing system.
