[net.rec.boat] A question to boat owners

howardh@ihu1e.UUCP (Howard Hill) (08/29/84)

About a month ago, my wife and I chartered a Hunter 34 out of Door
County Wisconsin.  Unfortunately, no matter what we did, the boat's
head had a definite bad smell.  We pumped and flushed the holding tank,
scrubbed the head itself and the piping, but nothing seemed to work.

I am planning to buy a boat in the next year or so and I hope to
avoid this problem, therefore I am asking for some help from you
boat owners out in netland.

Do you own a boat with a type 3 MSD?  If so, is there anything
(other than never using it) that you do to avoid odors from the
head or holding tank?

As usual, thanks muchly in advance and results will be summarized to
the net.
