We’re legal now

At least the aft head is.  It’s amazing how stiff that 1-1/2″ sanitation hose is!  Especially when it’s 40 deg outside.  Only through generous application of a heat gun and a little persuasion with a

Will it fit?

sawz-all did all those stupid hoses make those bends and fit into those little spaces.

At one point during the process, we needed a little more room for the hoses to wiggle.  So out came a 1/2″ piece of wood and fiberglass separating 2 hoses.  Almost immediately the 2 hoses expanded to fit the new space.  Crud!  No help there.

Phil really didn’t help much when, after 4 hrs of pulling, cutting, moving, thinking, debating and changing our minds, he asked “how many connections/hour are we averaging?” 🙁

Yes it finally fit!

But at the end of the day, it was all done.  The aft head now has a locking Y valve, 2 ways to empty the holding tank and is fully legal and ready to go for next year.

One winter project checked off the list!
