OK, several threads on heads and 16, 19, 21, 22, & 25' boats on the C-Brat site, but I wanted to just add one more....with some "just how much room does it take" thrown in. It does not get much simpler than this...and no pluming issues.
To the boater with full marine heads, to the vessel, each has at some point had issues.
To the boaters with porta-potties..... is that trip up the dock when other are fixing breakfast with ....THE HONEY JAR!
To the Air Head Boaters: You are over 1/2 way home by seperating the paper....
To all boaters: We use our boats, we are all humans, things will happen in time, some more plesant than others, and just how much room are we willing to give up on a boat for something that happens just a few times a day....if we are LUCKY!!!
We all also make trash every time we are on our boats. Paper plates, aluminum cans, plastics from food containers, glass bottles....boxes from food....on and on. We as people just make trash. As hickers, we are told leave nothing in the woods that was not there when you showed up. Hummm
A 22' cruiser owner turned me on to these items and I just call them "Thunder Bags." At some point, we will all get there on a boat.
Now how many of us keep a 5 gallon bucket on board already...at least one? Most boats I see at gatherings have one or two sitting about. Just add these bags somewhere on your boat.
For you CD25 & TC255 owners who really do shower or can fit into the phone booth and take a shower... just think if that head was not in there how much room and more pleasent you shower would be. Take the "pett pot" out when you shower.
Wal-Mart also has a line of these bags in their camping area, but the box does not say the bags themselves are biodegradeable...and I have no idea how long it would really take a fully bio-bag to bio...I have never kept one long enough to watch the process. The Wal-Mart bags are "less exspensive."...and we generally put the bags in a trash bag with other non-bio's and toss away at marinas during refueling/re-iceing during extended cruises anyway...

of infections and disease from human waste through developing portable, efficient, dry waste collection products. ThePETT® dry toilet system provides a sanitary method for transporting and disposing of both solid and liquid human waste through innovative biodegradable technologies.
· Outdoor recreationists leave more than their footprints in the wilderness.
· ThePETT system is a logistical and medical
choice for rapid emergency and military deployment.
· Cleaning and emptying commodes are two of the most unpleasant tasks caregivers and family members do for loved ones.
· You're 250 miles and 3 hours from the nearest stop and you gotta go, NOW.
· More people are killed by disease AFTER a disaster than from the disaster itself.
