There is also (as I said above) the possibility of sucking air into the motor cooling stream, and you'd be surprised how little air can causer big problems. Jeff Good point Jeff! Also consider hose volume issues although its not like the toilet is flushing constantly while the engine or generator o...

I see now. He wants to T off an existing hose? Would never consider doing that under the waterline. Too many elbows & hose clamps to fail. Make a new hole and do it correctly, imo.
Don't want to end up in the BoatUS magazine claims section.

Just noticed his name is Mytoy28. Assuming he has a 28.....We had a 1989, 28 with the traveler head (single tank under bowl). Toilet water was supplied by the freshwater tank & pump which was a waste of water given the tiny tank. 2 pump out ports on topside (1 suction pump out and 1 macerator). ...

Been using a Fortress for several years with very good results. I have a few feet of heavy chain to help hold it down. No issues in the mud/sand.

Stainless screws & bolts are correct. The key is to keep moisture away from the area where those 2 metals touch. If I were to go through another repaint job I would caulk every single screw hole with 4200 and make sure any areas that get wet can drain IE. under the bow rail mounts. The weep hole...
