Default pump out or no pumpout head

I think you'd find that harder to do than you think. The pumpout hose
comes out of the tank at the bottom, so you can't disconnect it from the
tank without dumping it...you'd have to disconnect the hose from the
deck pumpout fitting...and then be VERY careful to keep it above the top
of the tank while you carry it off the boat to dump it.
