[Rhodes22-list] In Praise of Porta-Potties

[Bill Effros]

Congratulations, Jack,

You will get more than you paid for, and more than you expect.  It's a wonderful boat.

The weakest link on my boat is the head.  This has nothing to do with Stan.  The head itself has failed twice, and I am about to change it.  Stan's part of the plumbing works flawlessly.

I plan to install a plumbed porto-potty.  I have been using fresh water for my head for a couple of years now, and I find that totally answers the odor problem.  I use Odorloss in the system, and have been very happy with it.  The porto-potty system is easier for guests to use.  Bringing fresh water is easier than keeping barnacles out of my salt water system.

My porto potty will be plumbed into my holding tank system which has worked flawlessly.

Greetings:

Last month I wrote to the Rhodie list for advice when the 
search for a boat narrowed to a WW Potter 19 or a Rhodes 22. 
Thanks for many helpful suggestions. Following a very 
impressive demonstration sail by the master himself at the 
Annapolis Boat Show, Stan is going to recycle an 86 Rhodes 
22 for me. The boat will be rechristened “Inherit the Wind” 
early next year, and have a new home at a marina in 
Riverside, NJ. As you probably know, the Rhodes ‘swell head’ 
was introduced after 1986, so ITW will have a semi-enclosed 
head with a porta-potti. In searching the web for 
information about these marvelous devices, I came upon, and 
would like to share with you, the following site.

Any further information or advice regarding porta-potties 
will be appreciated.
