I think Shields makes the hose specific to holding tank hoses, to mitigate the smell.
I don't think when these boats were built there were hoses made specifically for holding tanks. you have to be careful with some of the fittings that are made for these thanks, because some of them are actually 1 5/8, and you will have a hell of a time pushing them on to the Barbed ends. I had good luck finding adapter elbows at pool stores. Another thing I like, is using reinforced silicone radiator hose for the supply line, because it has no memory and you can remove it easily to winterize the head.

I am in the process of changing my head in my 1985 C&C 33-2 and since the hose connected to the head and the waste tank was old. I figured I would replace that to while I am at it. Questions:1. Is the original waste hoses Shields 310 Fuel Hoses?2. If they are, why did C&C use a Very Very Very expensive Fuel Hose.3. Since the connection to the head is on the opposite side of the hole in the wall and the hose does not flex to make the connection. Any recommendations on connectors to attach to VERY VERY VERY expensive fuel hose to make the turn.Thanks,RayLakeHouseMilwaukee, WI
