Either that or the pipes need changing.. leave it and the smell fades after a few days... but a rough sea.. or flush it and its back with a vengeance..

Sure hope you get that one sorted. [sordid?]

Boatie went to see, and carried 'round his pee;
It got rough, he added other stuff--
Better him than me!

er....... Id be cautious about thinking you learn things if your not a Brit......

we Brits have a way of imparting information that could you leave you in a a spot of bother if you visit England......

Like the English guy living in California who was asked by an American lady who was going to visit the UK later in the year... "what do you call zits in England?"
He told her they were called bollocks.

flash forward to Boots the Chemist 2 months later.. American lady at the counter.. "Hi, have you got anything for these bollocks?"

Boatie comes from the same school of humour. Come to think of it, we all do..
so very sad.

I, thankfully, witnessed this very unsavory trick at a young age and thus learned early on how to avoid eating balls. Trust nobody...

Except it is cold the weather sucks and the boat needs constant work. No one understands me. I am out of food water fuel and eggs. I'll call you when I get in.
