Toilets and Holding Tanks
Destiny has two electric MACERATING toilets, each permanently connected to its own
holding tank. Toilet waste is treated by maceration when you flush it. It is then
discharged into the sea via the holding tanks.
IMPORTANT!
When you are visiting a
MARINE PARK “B” zone (Green Zone)
or a Marina you must
not discharge
even treated waste
from the toilets. To comply with government regulations
- turn the large valve located on the tank to the
OFF
position to prevent waste from
discharging. When you depart the
GREEN ZONE
or marina swing the valve to the
OPEN
position and flush each toilet. The holding tanks have a limited capacity and are only
designed to hold waste generated over a 24 hour period. They therefore need to be
emptied regularly.
