[Rhodes22-list] Sorry to bring this subject up

[Kathy Barron]

Geoff,

When we got our Rhodes, I insisted on the enclosed head and holding tank, eventhough our little inland lake doesn't have a pumpout either. Thinking the head would become useful if we ever were able to cruise in the boat for any length of time. 
To solve the problem while on our lake, we discovered the Wag Bag, also made by Pett. We just use our head as the "stand" for the bags and simply have the equivalent of a ziplock bag to toss in the trash when we leave the boat.
