short, boats with installed toilets must have an operable Coast Guard approved Marine Sanitation Device (MSD)
designed to either hold sewage for pump out ashore or for discharge in the ocean beyond the three mile limit, or
to treat the sewage to Federal standards prior to discharge.
All boats built since 1977 with installed toilets must have an operable approved type I, II or III MSD. Since 1980,
all boats (including those built before 1977) with installed toilets must have an operable MSD. Both the U.S.
Coast Guard and the Natural Resources Police can enforce MSD requirements.
Check with your local authorities, Coast Guard, local marina or your dealer for the rules and/or laws that may
apply specifically in your area.
Head - Porta-Potti
The porta-potti is equipped with a 2.8-gallon holding tank. To operate the porta-potti system:
Set the portable toilet on its front side so the cap on the holding tank is in a vertical position.
Remove the cap and add SeaLand brand holding tank deodorant following the instructions on the
deodorant container. Replace the cap firmly.
Before using: Set the portable toilet in the upright position and remove the cap located on the
right, rear side of the fresh water tank. Fill with fresh water just below the neck of the fresh water
inlet. Depress the bellows pump to add water to the bowl.
After using: To flush, open the slide valve by pulling out the handle and press the bellows pump
one or more times. After flushing, close the slide valve by pushing the handle.
Caution: Never add holding tank deodorant to the waste holding tank by pouring directly into the
toilet bowl.
Before operating the porta-potti head system, refer to the manual in your owner's packet supplied by the porta-
potti manufacturer for specific operating instructions.
Head - Porta-Potti with Dockside Discharge (Optional)
This head system includes the same type of porta-potti described above but it has a 3.0-gallon holding tank.
Follow the same instructions as shown above to operate the porta-potti system.
To utilize the dockside discharge feature, first locate the waste outlet. It is a stainless steel fitting, labeled waste

provided by the marina into the waste outlet to connect to your marina’s dockside service facilities. Follow the
