Thetford vs. Dometic toilets

Bad advice! Must be MARINE GRADE. Plus if you ever need to replace some stringers, you already got the wood on hand

$&$@!?'n OSO letting me down! Which is it?! Just walked out of lowes. Guy sold me some OSB stuff??? Said it was an engineered product, and way better than the wood nature provides. Should I take it back?

If you turn around the tank serves as a little table for laptop, food, stroke mags, etc...

Will only work if you are outside of 3 miles from shore. No discharge within that distance and non period on inland lakes. Try again.

I mentioned treated wood because you were at Lowe's, and they don't carry CCA/marine grade because of environmental comcerns. They don't carry chili for the same reason.

I think you need to do a gravity flush toilet, the orange Home deep$hit buckets are key. Put a fitting in the bottom with a shut off valve( you`ll wanna spend as couple more bucks on a gate valve for faster flushing, brass for marine use of course ) Don`t tell em at the store that its for a marine use they will mark it up 200% on the spot.. keep that $hit on the down low.
Run a clear 3/4 plastic line to the toilet tank with a quick disconnect (for when you lower the bucket ((rope attached to handle)) for refilling.
If you wanna get really fancy get a dual flush toilet, it will save on water. Put bucket on deck as high as possible for best gravity flush. For underway I`d modify a GoPro suction cup mount. Should be good to 73mph.
