Default My HEAD, is killing me because my HEAD on the boat isn't legal

I just did the google and came up with nothing. Just a couple of boats that
said "have tank".

As for the forward berth ..?? My plan is to never, ever use any tank I put
on board. The whole thing is total bull ****. And Don Casey, in his book
"This Old Boat" agrees with me!

All I want to do is comply. What I would really like to do it some sort of
porta potty. It makes sense since I am nowhere near a pump out, ever.

I'd be very surprised if there's not room for a holding tank. Perhaps
under
the forward berth?
A Google search for "bristol 32" "holding tank" yields a number of
instances
where it's been done.

Old sailboat, old head. No pumpout. Don't blame me, the premious owner
didn't do the change-over.

I figure a little tank here, a hose there, a drain ?? Whatever

...........
OH NOOOOOOOOOOOO.

First: there is no room for a tank.
Second: every boat owner I talk to say "put that tank in with a Y valve,
never ever used the tank, it is just for show"

What a pile of CRAP!

Anyway ,, the question is what to do. All I want, meet the minimum
requirement.

Is there a way I can put in a tank, but not get into the hole in the boat
for pump out? I am not near a pump out station anyway.
In fact, no one I know except a couple of very large power boats have
ever
used the pump out station at the marine which is way far
away.

Any ideas of installing a tank that I can use like a porta potty. That
is
the answer, I think. Leave the same head in place, but have a
tank I can take out of the boat.

Give me a "head's" up.
