i just purcahsed an Ericson 32-200 1990 and have not used the head or the tanks out of fear. I have heard horror stories about it and i wans to do it properly. I would appreciate any help with the following. The boats is supper clean and was winterized. So the tanks are empty and all the hoses replaced.
1)i have a norinco head with manual pump. The pump has two settings, DRY and FLUSH. i have read the manual but it is not very clear.
a) how to operate and flush the toiled.. and how to set it when going away.
b) we have not use it and i put some recommended baggs of blue stuff, which i flushed down. the following week i found blue in the toilet water, i assume it came back from the tank, is that possible?
c)we do d have a gauge for the tank, can you please recommend and external gauge?
2)fresh water holding tank.
a)can you please recommend what to put inside the tank so the water is clean? Not drnkable but good enough to wash dishes etc?
any other recommendation to avoid bad smells on the boat from the head is greatly appreciated. Many thanks.
