My old John Allmand had a system like yours. I got boarded by the Coast Guard for a routine courtesy inspection. Fortunately, I had a plastic bag (that we never used) lining the inside bowl of the toilet. Since anyone taking a dump into the plastic bag complied with the law about not discharging over the side they had to let me go... but they gave me a stern warning that they were being nice and that I really needed a holding tank. Soon after that I installed a Porta potty. I figured the $69 cost was a lot less than the $500 fine I was quoted.

Aside from that, welcome to the site. Good to see you aboard.

PS, I live near NYC. On any given day the East River discharges tens of thousands of gallons of RAW sewage into the ocean... but that's ok... but the little 2 quarts of sewage you might dump in will make the entire world polluted. Pretty amazing....

next on list - figure out fake lock thingy to go on hatch over toilet
