For the last couple of days we have been purging the holding tanks on Reboot. Normally one does what they can to not fill them up. When full you get a pump out, throw a little bit of water in the tank, and then pump it out again. We have had the luxury of filling the tank completely, letting it sit with chemicals overnight, and then pumping out again. The first couple of times it is amazing how much "stuff" comes lose from the side of the tanks. When done, we are actually pumping out clear water and much of the smell is gone. Quality.
Fair winds and following seas.
