[C320-list] Fresh water head-flush plumbing

[crashley at gte.net]

All I'm saying is that many of the bigger boats come with freshwater 
flushing systems (and electric heads!). More room for tankage and such. If 
there were room for in the 320 for a dedicated water tank for flushing I 
would be more interested in pursuing it, realizing that connecting the head 
intake into the existing fresh water system is probably dangerous.
