Default What a stinker

Do the people that work on your boat a favor.

If one person uses the potti.... it's dirty. It's not that it's not that dirty. You know that one day someone couldn't quite make it to town? The real capacity of the porti potties is maybe 5: people...the porcelain ones with the holding tanks much more.

Everything is about being lazy and paying someone to do the dirty work. I don't know why pump outs are free on a $200,000 boat, and then people are too lazy to stop and get pumped out. Trust me you don't score brownie points when you bring the boat for storage with a summers load. Surprise surprise all it does is slow down winterization. You probably expect the potti clean and empty when you pick it up in the spring. Do yourself and the people storing your boat a favor....take the 10 minutes to pump your boat right before you drop it off.

Wouldn't it make sense to fuel up and pump out at the same time? Pumping takes longer than getting gas. Don't forget to tip. Do you thing those nicely dressed young ladies at the gas dock really want to get their hands dirty and deal with your mess?

Probably what is needed are floating restrooms that roam the lake all summer like the tiki boats.

"Oh but we never use it". Must be people sneak into the boats cuz the just HAVE to go.... CAN'T WAIT.
