Some opportunities are just irresistable!

Wouldn't it be simpler--and a more reliable fix--to just replace the
fitting with one that's the correct size?



How do you propose avoiding any engine maintenance? Replace it with oars?

Put both on the wall so they're easy to operate & clean.

It will never smell, will last years & years & in the highly

unlikely

event someone does manage to block it??? most bilge pumps have an "O"

ringed

screw on face that makes the cleanup much more manageable into a bucket,

if

still not exactly pleasant:-)

The toilet spruikers go on & on about buying their ripoff priced
"special" hoses etc etc etc but seem to be in denial that most marine

heads

have no more than an "O" ring piston running in a placky bore between

the

waste side & the water inlet side & from there to the boat's cabin,

which is

where the real smell emanates. Even the cheapest hoses will last years

if

you use plenty of water to flush; which with the bilge pump system you

will

easily.
