It is in fact part of USCGA insp. unless that has changed in the last few months. I do not known if the CG will check it when boarding , but both state and local law inforcement have the right to board and insp.


But why not be within the law anyway.

I think you can hook up the sealand and some other 'poti-poty" type to a pump out hose and fitting .


for what is worth all boats made as of jan 1 1977 had to have a treatment system or holding tank installed when built so if you trojan was a 1977 model it yhad a tanik when built . this info came out of my trojan book
my f36 came with monomatic 15 at a cost of $37.50

My 1990 F32 came with a similar setup- not the Monomatic, but still what was essentially a permanently installed portapotty. We did not like this setup- holding tank too small, smells when you're flushing, etc., but it certainly is the simplest way to go.

We replaced that unit with a Raritan Atlantes, and added a holding tank from Ronco Plastics. We use a bubbler system that Jabsco or somebody makes that eliminates anaerobic bacteria and the accompanying smell from the holding tank. Very pleased with the results.

sealand toilet

Post by duchess »

by the way the sealand is fresh water flush and has discharge to pumpout built in its not a prtapotty type toilet at all before going to the trouble of putting in a separate holding tank you should take a look at this unit it was the original unit on the f 36 and f 32 s after the monomatics were discintinued
