Good Day Everyone,
I recently purchased a 1984 Hunter 37c docked in Vallejo, CA. The boat is in good to excellent overall condition structurally and mechanically. I'm replacing 100% of the interior cushions, putting in a new Force 10 stove, new fridge, new 12V battery system... but the Yanmar is freshly rebuilt, the standing and running rigging are in fair to very good condition, clean bottom, a couple leaky portlights, but the hatches are dry.
My question is about head and waste tank. Per the previous owner, the head was trashed and the waste tank sealed up. Anyone have any experience cutting out the wste tank? I believe it is situated inside a molded seat in the shower stall correct? I'm considering a composting toilet to replace the old conventional unit, with the thought of sealing up the thru-hull on my next haul out. Any composting toilet owners out there?
Thanks!
