[C320-list] Location of Grey Water Tank onnewC32 forCharterSurvey

[Sweetwater Yacht Charters]

Annie-

Wow, after reading your posts I feel much better about the regulations we
have to deal with on the Great Lakes! I offer Persistence for bareboat
charter and I am SO glad I don't have to deal with the things you do. I have
to have an inspection every year, but basically they just want to make sure
the vessel is safe. We are required to have a waste holding tank but not a
grey water holding tank (hopefully they don't start getting ideas!) Is the
water pollution a big problem in Sydney? I'm wondering why they are so
strict. I guess I won't complain about our regulations any more.
