What are you trying to flush? Tennis balls? No, but pretty close. Except that solid waste is 75% water...tennis balls aren't. So the Y valve is_before_the holding tank? Isn't that illegal in many areas? Nope. It doesn't matter where the y-valve is, only where waste ends up. Why would you go to a holding tank if you're planning to go offshore? I prefer not to dump raw sewage into the ocean. Otherwise, I would just crap over the side. So why would you install a macerator if you don't plan to dump the tank at sea? Or do you think a whole tankful is better for the environment than a single flush? -- Peggie ---------- Peggie Hall Specializing in marine sanitation since 1987 Author "Get Rid of Boat Odors - A Guide To Marine Sanitation Systems and Other Sources of Aggravation and Odor" http://shop.sailboatowners.com/books...ku=90&cat=1304 |
