This week, we start a major poop project. We demo our head and prep to install our new Dometic macerating toilet. But it's not all work. We also get a chance to see Miami from above!
If you enjoyed this episode, please give it thumbs up, it helps us out a bunch :)

It makes my heart smile when I see you kids get blessed like that.... are you sure mighty nice for those folks to take you up on that airplane like that what a awesome time you must have had.... we'll just keep on praying that God will send more blessings like that your way. .

@SailingUma 4 года назад

Sure but This isn’t a house. On a boat... all screws really should be accessible!

@Buck1954 4 года назад

@@SailingUma Fine Cabinetry in a house or a boat will follow similar principles. While I can agree that everything "should be" able to dismantle, the practicality of commercial construction doesn't allow time spent on those fine details. [add] By rebuilding the interior, you get to choose what is hidden and not. I like how you are able to take things apart. I'm a designer too, and a builder.

@MrPoppasmurf79 6 лет назад

Love the evolution of the show. The more popular they get, the more sponsors , gifts, etc. Since they are on a budget you can't blame them for getting upgrades. As for the boat or future boat, why not, if you want to sail the world you want to sail in comfort and safety. I am no sailor, if they decide to cross the Atlantic would it be better to do it with another boat or boats or do people decide to go at it alone on their first time?

@clairepapadatos1116 6 лет назад

Absolutely brilliant!👍👍👍

@edrosenberger6947 6 лет назад

Had a C-172.....they are great fun but one cannot go anywhere without burning fuel and they are too small for habitation....unlike a sailboat :)! I enjoy watching you two renovate your ship....it always ends up better than before. I've been trying to decide what the best head for me should be and so I'll be all ears. The Wynns like a composting head but right now I'm with Dan....too hands on. I think the Coast Guard requires that a lockable 'Y' dump overboard/holding tank valve be locked to the tank while inside the three mile offshore limit.

Or maybe “let’s doo this”? Been watching a year or so and only now dipping back cuz I’m shopping composting systems & installation. Thanks you two!!

@Largexxl-zn4lx 6 лет назад

The main difference between a bucket and a proper composting toilet is the seperation between n.1 and number 2. Ask the wynns (=great sailing channel)

@oceandrew 6 лет назад

And I think that's what makes the traditional composting toilet go longer before emptying.

@flyingdutchman6984 6 лет назад

Absolutely correct. I have a proper composting toilet and when sailing solo I can often go three months before having to clean out the solids chamber.

@ruaraidhmcdonald-walker9524 4 года назад

@stephencrowther524 6 лет назад

Sounds explosive 😂

@p-dubya 6 лет назад

Not practical with solar. Great option if you're plugged into marina but not feasible for life on the hook.

@NorbCat 6 лет назад

Harold - Personally speaking, I don’t want a flame anywhere near my butt!

@flyingdutchman6984 6 лет назад

It is the electricity that is the main concern with incendiary toilets as the burn chambers often require a minimum of a 120v 15a circuit. Many marinas I have stayed at couldn't even come close to supplying 15a on shore power and no way I could flush without running a generator for the toilets 60-90 minutes cycle time. There also needs to be a vent installed which can be problematic on small vessels.

@toothfairy1605 6 лет назад

Sounds great. Burn it... burn it all.

@MrTatts64 6 лет назад

Bucket and chuck it! So much better than hanging your butt over the side of the boat in rough weather ;) Another excellent video, thanks guys!

@643manning 6 лет назад

I thought it was funny the Uma crew trying to convince us that they used the "bucket" as a composting head. LOL !!! who are you trying to kid. And sailor that has used a bucket to poop in chucked the poop over the side immediately when the job was done. I'm not buying the story. LOL

@brianaustin1328 5 лет назад

You flew over my stomping grounds! At 15:13 that is Mashta Island. The house I grew up in was torn down and replaced in the early 1990's, but I have a lot of fond memories from there.

Dan, Kika, Kika has told us her age, Dan is more secretive, only left my guess you are one or two years cadett.

@flyingdutchman6984 6 лет назад

It is going to be interesting to see what solution you come up with to make the head legal in U.S. waters. I found a c-head in the trash years ago at a marina and have been using it ever since. Separating the liquids and solids is what makes composting toilets work. Anything else is just a bucket of poo and dirt.

@WreckDiver99 4 года назад

I find it interesting. When I had my boat on the Great Lakes, anytime I did work on it at the dock I got watched like a hawk. Cutting ANYTHING near the water always had the local water police saying "keep that out of the water". Fiberglass was a HUGE NO NO on the water. I did work on my dock to put a step in (water levels were getting high, and the 2-1/2 foot climb to the get on the boat was way too much for my family. I've watched you guy paint on the water (oh hell no in the Great Lakes where I am, and so much more that you'd be told NO. most of the projects you did would have REQUIRED a pull-out on the hard where I am. Yea, lots of projects were never done on my boat because of that. Don't own her anymore...really don't miss her. If I want to get back into boating again I can get a boat tomorrow.

@edl617 5 лет назад

was on a boat years ago with 2 heads. One of the heads did not work. The first 3 days of cruising we attempted to get it working. but since it was a charter we were not allow to disasemble it. Got a partial refund. about 3 weeks after I got home the Captain of the sailboat sent me a letter. yes that long ago. saying thank you for the help and that there was a blockage in the lines. which was cause because of lack of maintenance.

@justwandermaya 3 года назад

Enjoying your channel. On this topic, haven't seen many sailors talk about ventilation in the head. Is that not common (unless the head has a window to crack)? Have you seen any sailors with incinerator toilets?

@SailingUma 3 года назад

Most heads have a hatch or port that opens. Ours has a soffit vent. As for incinerator toilets. No, not on boats. They make sense in cabins or in an RV, but on a boat, it's just a very complicated solution to a very simple problem easily solved on boats. Besides, they require WAY more power to operate than most boats have available.
