Composting head.....2nd BEST purchase EVER!
Scott,
I'm on my 4th season using Natures Head. I loved it so much I removed it from the old boat to my new to me 323; which even had a serviceable/traditional Marine head/holding tank!
Here is the thread regarding installation on SEA HAVEN:
Head UpgradeTook an afternoon to install, most of which was yanking out the existing MSD.
Like politics and religion, I suppose ones choice of MSD system is quite personal. Having had both, I happen to prefer the composting toilet.
The ONLY on-board odor I've experienced is akin to "garden dirt" and ONLY if i stick my nose in the bowl, and THAT was because I didn't believe how odorless it is!
I gained storage space by removal of the old storage tank and I've lost the need to pay/tip the pumpout folks as well as being held at their mercy.
Granted I empty the liquid tank after 2-3 days of use, and to be honest, that may be not odor free (if it sat over a week) as you pour it down any conventional toilet ashore, but it really is nothing.
I unload the compost at the end of the season which gives me pretty flowers in the spring.
Again, with all due respect to those that stick with traditional Marine Plumbing, I'll never go back.

PS Congratulations and good luck on your "new to you" 323, you will find as we did it's the 323 that wins "BEST purchase EVER!"
