And, for what. A pump out that almost every boat owner has but never uses?

If its the law you do it or pay the bucks to Uncle Sam. Kinda like pot.
Somoke it an themn pay the price if get caught.

This is beyond stupid. To spend all kinds of money, drill holes in the deck
of an old sailboat, so that a holding tank that will never get used is in
place is nutty.

Might take an afternoon. I just drilled my 1 7/8" inch hole, set the 1
1/2" bronze ftting in the hole and gooed amply with sikaflex 295 or
some number close to that. Oh, I forgot that I epoxy back filled the
balsa core that I chewed out about 1 inch. total time about 4 hours
with cure time and 4 beers. No big deal but very reasuring that my
through deck bronze is good fo 20 years.


If you are behind my boat and you see a blue bucket and it is being thrown
overboard ......... don't come to close.

Dont worry........ when out I rarley get more than vhf range to another
boat. Seems safer that way. Oh, and I never go scuba diving with a
"buddy." Thats the fastest way to get killed.
