I am getting foul odors from under the sink in the head. I have sprayed bleach on the hoses which solves the problem for the day but the next time I am to the boat the odors are back. It appears that after 25 years, I need to replace all the sanitation hoses.

I must say it is a "rats nest" of hoses under the sink since I have a "Y" valve to direct to either the holding tank or overboard, an overboard pump along with the hoses for the trap as well as the deck pump out.

Once I remove the sink I can get to most hoses but it looks like the real problem hose to replace is the deck pump-out hose which goes to a "T". That hose seems to take a 90 degree bend just above the right top side of the tank. The right topside of the tank is hidden under the toiletry compartment and doesn't appear to be accessible unless I destroy the toiletry compartment.

Has anyone replaced their hoses and can you give me advice as to the best way to get this "shitty" job done.

In late fall for the tear apart.
Hoses have spring and fling. If you can cover the ends you may get less soiled. No one will challenge you on the way to the dumpster. Wear clothes that will go into the dumpster shortly after the hoses. Have plenty of paper towels, diapers and disinfectant wipes handy. It's going to be ugly.
It's only worth it because you could end up with a sweet smelling boat - which is sellable.

Did this with my 37.5.
had to deconstruct the entire outside of the head to get to the hoses. I ain't the brightest guy though so perhaps you can contort yourself to get to the hoses.
It did go back together pretty easy though. FWIW
