Ryk,

At some point I am sure I would like to venture farther afield but I somehow
doubt it will be in this boat. I would certainly like to give it a try but
the St Lawerence might even be a bit much for this boat. Don't know yet.

I suppose I will look a little harder for a tank. I was trying to stay away
from pumps and what not, but you are right. I could, using pumps, put the
tank almost anywhere.

Hi Peggy,

I have shopped around here in Ottawa Canada

Are you expecting to get out of the river and the Rideau much? Or to
anywhere that isn't a no-discharge zone? Peggie may be thinking in
terms of warmer, saltier locales. 45 gallons doesn't seem like a bad
choice to me if you can deal with the weight and space issues.

I suggest you look farther afield for a tank that will fit, and/or
consider a location other than the bilge. There should be lots of
places possible on a 40 foot houseboat. Remember the tank doesn't have
to be located below the toilet.
