Hi all,
I"m currently replacing all components in our 1989 Hunter 30's head. The last piece of the puzzle seems to be this Waste tank which I cannot seem to find. I contacted Ronco and a few other manufacturers with no luck. Waiting to hear back from Dura-weld Plastics.... Does anyone know where I might find a similar tank? If not - perhaps recommend someone that makes custom tanks?
The problem with this tank is that it is giving off some type of chemical odor. We removed the tank and power-washed it, scrubbed it, etc. I put the old tank back in the boat with all new pluming, head, etc. I removed all of the rotted wood, and cabinets and made new.
After a day with this old tank back in the boat the head started to smell again. We hadn't even used it. We tried spraying it with different deodorizers with no luck. Finally I took the tank out - the next day the odor was completely gone.
I'm not sure what the odor is - but it's on the outside of the tank and I can't get rid of it... Perhaps the outside of the tank could be "sealed" with some type of paint or epoxy?
Anyway - any ideas would be great.
Thank you!
Chris
