HI Gary and Dwight! As I understand it, and as evidenced by my forensics when I began rebuilding the thing, the original 35-II had a small tank port side between the cabin liner and the hull. In mine there is an original through hull up there.
The Waste deck fill to pump out was originally labeled "WATER". One of the previous owners installed a polyethylene tank in the vee berth and had the pump out attached via hose to the bow deck fill. We never had the sloshing problem Gary had, because the P.O. replaced the toilet with a new Jabsco with the requisite Y fitting in case we ever sailed the ocean blue. Our initial problem was poor construction of the polyethylene tank where there was a bit more than a pinhole at the top which vented out foul air. After all my reading over the years I have been re-building, I pulled the tank out and had an additional vent fitting installed in the top which I was going to vent directly outside and have a fan suck that air out, forcing fresh air in to increase the balance of aerobic bacteria. I have not yet decided where to pierce the deck for this additional fitting. Another option I have contemplated is a composting toilet, but haven't heard from real users, just the claims of manufacturers. So, there you go, any advice would be appreciated.
