Go back to the efficient and tried and true method of discretely
disposing your waste over the side using a bucket.

Disposing of waste within, what, 3 miles of shore is against the law in
the US.


38 million gallons of untreated human waste dumped into the straits
everyday by Victoria BC and no problems.

We were pumping about 181 million litres of raw sewage into Halifax harbour
daily and it was disgusting.
Thank God we finally got sewage treatment plants built and they are coming
on line now.

Today's flood was all YOUR fault, Roger! All this talk about Sewage Lines
plugged up the whole neighborhood where I live! The Roto-Rooter man was
here for hours.....It was just awful. Instead of the air outside smelling
like blooming flowers from Magnolia Gardens Plantation, it smells like a
sewage pond outside. Even the dogs have all left!

It backed up into my pipes, of course, and when I flushed an hour ago the
toilet flooded right over the top of it all over the floor, creating quite
a mess! I rushed out to get my cleaning device and the awful stuff that
was plugging the pipe (full of course) came rushing out and missed me by
only inches! I'm pretty fast when chased by sewage!....(c;

The washer is dealing with the messy towels and some serious detergent as
I type.

All the lines are free and clear, now. Let's have no more talk of sewage
lines for a while. I need a REST!

(c;

Retirement sucks. I'm going back to work....IT'S EASIER!

If you can hear them cursing and see them shaking their fists at
you....you're too close to shore........or the marina hasn't gone to sleep
like you thought, yet....(c;

But won't the vinegar also kill the useful treatment bacteria?

Nope. A cupful, even once a day, isn't enough for the bacteria in the
tank to notice it.

Prevention is simple. Don't pee into the head.

Tell that to the ladies?

You say that like you don't know any ladies who slip over the transom
for a "swim".

Our current boat is fairly civilized.

The immediately previous boat didn't have as civilized a head. What we
had was rarely used by the many ladies we sailed with that decade. Most
of them did enjoy a short stop for "swimming", though.

SO FRIGGIN' WHAT!!!!!!

Sure, cholera, dysintery, e-coli... no problem.

It's totally legal for me to
squat over the side and poop

No, it isn't.

Anybody who complies with a stupid law is himself or herself stupid.

Yeah, but what's your excuse?

The trouble with the theory that "anyone who complies with a stupid
law is himself or herself stupid" is that it is a nonviable defense
when you get caught.
