Re: Stus-List nature's head

Just bought one for my new boat. Will install and try in June. I’ll be able to 
provide first hand experience on my return from Bordeaux in July.

Re: Stus-List nature's head

I installed a Natures Head on my CS 30 three yrs ago.


I've not yet fiber-glassed over the inlet and outlet thru hulls -
  but I feel confident enough with the composting head that I'm
  planning to get it done.
In my case I didn't have a holding tank, needed new toilet and
  new hoses -- so the composting head was cheaper and far easier.


I basically took the old toilet out - dropped the composting head
  in it's place.  Drilled an air vent opening and added a solar vent
  in the head mated up with the air vent hose.


Toilet is bit too tall for the space - but I couldn't set it
  lower because the shelf under the toilet covers the curve in the
  hull.  Leaves you sitting with your feet dangling. I may raise the
  floor height - but given I'm over 6ft I'd rather not lose
  headroom. I can offer up some pictures if you are interested. Seem
  to remember that the Natures Head was an easier fit than the Air
  Head for my space.

I have had some small flies in the head (advised to use
  diatomaceous earth which I'll try this year)) - but no smell from
  the head at all. After 3 yrs I've not had to empty the compost yet
  (fairly light use). Worst part is emptying the urine jug - but I
  hope to add a 12V windshield washer pump discharging to the sink
  drain to simplify that task.


Overall I'm pleased.  Bit of a pain explaining to guests how to
  use it - but still less complex than a manual marine toilet.

Nature's head?  I use it every time I'm in the woods.

And...with regard to plumbing reductions, consider a prostatectomy.  The
increase in flow is significant.

(Sorry, Joe.  No experience to actually answer your question.)
