[Public-List] V Berth Cubby - water tank (Keeping mud out of the forepeak)

[John Birch]

A pressure switched deck wash system is fairly cheap, about $200 CDN. By 
washing your rode, either rope or chain before it comes up on deck most muck 
will be kept off the boat and besides, it can double as a shower when 
underway on those hot stinky days

We installed one years ago and I have never regretted it.

Best

John
