Hi Peter. As you probably know, I'm from NZ and I thought we had some wonderful cruising grounds but I must say how impressed I am with the beautiful bays and waterways you have. Just stunning. The boat is looking very smart. Just one thing, please go back and double clip those shit pipes. Nothing worse than waking up in the morning to the aroma of festering poop! It doesn't go well with the aroma of bacon cooking on the stove or bar-b-q. LOL.

Hmmm, good point. The problem I'm having is that as soon as it senses I want to land it takes over and with the boat moving underneath it it doesn't do a very good job. I'm playing with disabling sensors.

Travels With Geordie I have found the same, it gets a little Squirrley when it starts getting in close. I have found that just grabbing it out of the air is the best bet. Once you get over the idea that you’re going to chop your hand off it goes quite well. I imagine you know that if you then turn it upside down it will automatically turn off... By the way, my wife and I enjoyed your video on the hoses but we were smirking a little bit because, after having battled with toilets on board for many many years, we finally switched over to a composting toilet. Probably the best thing we ever did on any of our boats!
