WASTE SYSTEMS
It is the operator’s responsibility to discharge any waste safely and legally. See the following information for some general
guidelines.
Federal law says that untreated sewage can NOT be discharged in inland or coastal waters. This means the sewage from a
portable toilet or a Type III holding tank cannot be discharged unless you are in the ocean more than 3 miles offshore.
Operating in a federally designated “No Discharge Area” further restricts what sewage you can discharge overboard. In
these areas, there is no treated sewage discharge allowed from boats. That means if you have a Type I or II MSD, you are
not allowed to discharge it while in those waters. There is a trend towards more local waters being designated as No
Discharge Areas, so if you rely on using your Type I or II MSD, check a cruising guide before venturing into new waters.
This national symbol is used to show boaters where onshore pumpout services are located. You’ll need to know this symbol
if you use a portable toilet or Type III MSD (holding tank) on your boat.
223 DC
The 223 DC has options for a portable toilet or a pump out porta potty. The pump out porta potty will be emptied through
the deck fitting shown below.
243 DC
The 243 can come equipped with a portable toilet or an electric flush toilet. If the electric toilet option is selected, the
waste will be stored below deck in a holding tank, and waste can be pumped out through the deck fitting shown.
