I know what you mean about bleach,
A little bit of bleach goes a long long way and as long as you dilute it = properly it won't eat gaskets and such...2 tablesppons of bleach to a 5 = gallon bucket of water is enough to kill critters...I see people blop a = cup to a gallon, though, which is way overkill.... --=20 katysails s/v Chanteuse Kirie Elite 32 http://katysails.tripod.com "Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea." - Robert A.

Yes it does, but a trap would ease the bend on the hose and hold a little
water so general smells wouldn't float back up to get'cha! Seahag The_navigator© wrote: Doesn't your sink discharge over the side? Cheers MC Seahag wrote: Bingo!

DSK I think you could make an argument for a trap if you are using a holding tank, I'd rather have some of the nasty gasses that form in a holding tank choose to exit the system via an outboard vent than the interior sink drains.

If you had a straight gravity flow into th eholding tank with no valves or anything, you could make a case for a trap. Personally I would think at least a check valve ought to be in there. DSK |

You are absolutely correct on this point Kitty! The galley is a Man's domain... where fillets are surgically removed from the freshest of daily catches.... where steaks are seasoned to perfection prior to the grill! Where potatoes are shown the respect they deserve and cooked with their skins on! Where the onion slices are cut thick, mushrooms are sliced in half and vegetables are a considered a garnish! Gleaming stainless counters and dangerous stoves go hand in hand with razor sharp knives and a rocking platform! A theater that would comfort a bomb squad is no place for the frailty of a female best suited to adorning the deck or warming the bunk of a true sailor! CM |
