Default Head Trip -- Thoughts on Vacuflush Etc.

Ummm...folks...if he has a 40' MY and regularly has a gaggle of
landlubbers aboard, a Lavac would be a ridiculous choice...and if the
route from the toilet to the tank and/or thru-hull is something only a
snake could love, hard pipe isn't a good option either.

He hasn't provided enough information yet to allow any of us to make any
recommendations that are right for HIS boat.

Default Head Trip -- Thoughts on Vacuflush Etc.

Hi Peggie,

Its an Irwin Citation 38 aft cockpit. The routing
from the head back to the holding tank is not too
bad. The routing from the thru-hull to the
holding tank is not too bad. The routing from the
head to the thru-hull is damn near impossible--a
reason why I'm seriously considering routing
everything through the holding tank.

Primary use of boat is as a liveaboard for two
people while cruising. OTOH there will certainly
be visitors aboard at times, and they will be
landlubbers.
