Your location is WA State.....Moses Lake area??? That has got to be the same boat that I've been looking at.

Well I'll be dipped.....learn something new everyday. Thanks for the responses.

Looking at an 88 SeaRay. Owner says it has a 135 SeaRay outboard on it......thinks it's was made by Merc??? The picture sent is a bit fuzzy, but sure enough it says SeaRay on the side of the cowling, but doesn't look like any outboard I've seen before.....maybe just the mostly white paint job...

Looks like it takes a 3/4" from the supply side.

The only difference is that it looks like your in Ohio and I'm in Washington State. Your raw water is probably fresh vs salt water for me. I'm sure that even fresh/lake water can stink up after awhile, but I KNOW that this is a common complaint from salt water.

Would having a seperate small tank just for toilet supply meet this requirment?

I'm guessing your talking about your DA??? In my DB the only thing behind the bathroom is the engine compartment. I do have a seat just in front of the bathroom that I could possible fit a tank under though....hmmmm.

And here I thought I had this whole part of the planning all figured out. Now you guys have got me rethinkin it. So let's explore the "fresh water" option- I know about the stinky part, but was under the impression that one could dump a little clorox in the bowl if it was parked for any...

Here's the sitch. Boat came with a porta-potty that the Admiral was never really excited about....ok, she hates it. Cap'n B finds a used toilet, hoses, y-valve, macerator pump and 20G holding tank on craigslist and the Admiral is pleased with the direction things are heading!....get it...

Got in late last night. Timed it so we went through the Siskyous in the middle of the day and we sailed right thru. Other than that it rained like crazy all the way up the coast, we cruised right along back to home. Thanks for the help. B

Thanks guys for all the input. I had been leaning towards sticking with the ho-hum I-5 route, but thought that if I got some pretty possitive feedback about the Vegas route I'd take it to see another part of the country. After reading all the posts it just confirmed that I better stick to the...

Thanks for the insight. Ran into a buddy after work and he was saying that the route in northern AZ/ southern UT can get a bit dicey....anyone know about this neck of the woods?

This Friday and Sat I'm going to be helping my son move back home and will be making the run from Phoenix, AZ up to Seattle, WA. Could really use some advice about routes at this time of year??? I'm familiar with the route straight west to LA and then up 5...only one major problem spot in...

As far as pics go, I don't have any pics of the Pre-Busted trailer with the boat. I could take some pics of the broken crossmembers and some of the work I'm doing right now to repair. Doug- I wonder why they recommend not placing the bunk under the stringer??? You're right, I'll get ahold of...

Could really use some help from anyone familiar with boat trailers.:smt100 I'm redoing the cross members on the trailer and have a chance to change the locations of the bunks if I want to....the question is, should I??? I'd like to eliminate the two smaller ones if possible. Here's the...
