Haggy, often the smell is caused by the pipe being too big.
It doesn't get full bore flow so never flushes out properly.
If the outlet is 1" use 1"ID smooth bore hose, make sure it's suitable
for the use. caravan parts guys are the best source.



Mr. H. finally got home, turns out he actually has an elbow for the hose.
Talk about procrastination! He's going to cut out the kink and put in the
elbow. We'll see how that works. I'll keep the hose size in mind, on the
other boats the hose was 1", this one is 1 1/2 or 2"!

OK.
Due to plumbing considerations, Mr. H put an elbow in the 1 1/2" hose on
Monday. I'll give it a week and let you all know if that was a solution.
If it still stinks we're looking at a new sink and counter...
