I read that a boat owner had installed an in line charcoal filter to help manage vent odors. I can't find the article now.
Is there a cheap and easy way, and will it help to install such a filter?
1. Yup, installation in many boats would be difficult, which why I always caution that leaving it off is better than doing it poorly.Cat:
Very nice installation, but I doubt that most mono hulls have the room for such an installation.
Catalina's are notoious for this problem (vent through a stanchion). It is much easier to use a short run with a traditional thru hull vent.
We had a screen in our vent that I removed and life was much better. The cost of Odorlos when it is purchased in the bulk container (6 lbs) equates to something like$.50 per scoop. It not only help with the ordor, but also helps break down the waste. Even if you have an inline filter I would think you would still use some chemicals.
