I am about to take the plunge and purchase a Sun-Mar composting toilet for
my boat. It is a marine version. It requires a fan (4 watts) for a 3" stack
and also has a heater (12v 120 watt or 1 amp ac). The fan I could easily run
off of a solar panel. Heater (~50% duty cycle). While on shore power, no
concern. Foor print - 16" X 17". Capacity - wk end/vacation use - 3/4
adults.

Any one have any comments for and against, to help me make a final decision?


Before I can offer any advice, I have questions: what size boat? Power
or sail? Where are you--coastal waters or inland?

Also, the boat currently has a shower and I am considering tossing it to
reclaim the space. I know it can be a personal thing,but do you think I
would regret getting rid of it?

If only to make room for the toilet, yes.
