i found one but he charges 120 per hour and in my opinion that's a bit to much so if anyone is in the Norfolk area with decent prices i would highly appreciate to know of a number or if anyone would want to contact me my number is 718-710-0963

got a pic of the tank... finally got a hole open to get to it...

I'm starting to feel a lil sick to my stomach, actually I think I just threw up in my mouth a lil, 120$ an hour sounds great!!! I wud pay 250$ before I dropped any kind of scope in to a poop tank, I'm just sayin. Hell I can't even pick up dog crap, wife's job!!!

first .... EWWWWWW. second....when performing any sort of onboard waste maintenance, DO NOT LICK YOUR FINGERS AFTERWARDS. ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES/MASK/FACE GOGGLES. third.....use placards in the toilet area like we have on the airplanes. (not that anyone pays any attention to posted placards OR crew member instructions), but, there are placards and written instructions that you can install in the toilet area of the boat. fourth.... your step daughters buddies are PERMANENTLY banned from the boat :wink:
jefflaw.... you don't strike me as the squeamish type when it comes to the dog waste problem. but, i've seen stronger men turn into jello over turbulence (hell, even the butchest looking marines turn into crying 2 year olds over that one) and or other body functions. when maccabee was a puppy he barfed on phil's arm while they were on the sofa. you should have heard this 'redneck contractor' scream like a child. jeeze.... i just grabbed some towels and gloves and cleaned it up. both phil and the dog.
someone has to maintain order in this house.

What goes in the head

Post by TADTOOMUCH »

First rule with visitors on our boat.

1. If it didn't go in your mouth first, It don't go in the head
2. If you have to go #2 on the boat you better be near death
3. If the head needs maintenance, I only touch the tools not the stools.

LOL i just love the spin that this thread has taken, and i dunno im not the vomiting type personally and i was wearing a poop suit and a mask.... the only thing that made me almost gag in all true honesty is the 3 gallons of bleach that i poured into the lines to disinfect everything after the initial job was done... it for some reason started to fume up and holy crap i couldn't taste anything but bleach for a few hours..... from now on ONLY #1 ON MY DAM BOAT!!!!! lol.... verbal warning goes out to every single new person steping foot onboard.....
