Default Just a little question/survey about living aboard

Portos are easy... add water and chemicals, dump and

Not if they are properly used & properly taken care of.

If your porta potty is 'smelling up the boat' then you should get a new one and
this time, read the instruction manual.

FOr all that, I still would not recommend living aboard with a porta potty. It
would get very tedious emptying the thing every couple of days, plus marinas &
shore side facilities generally do NOT want them dumped into their septic tanks.





Installed heads smell too, unless you really deal with them.


"Really dealing with them" so that they don't smell is actually pretty easy.

Knowledge is your best weapon. Get & read & follow Peggie Hall's book about
marine sanitation.
