Pmoyer-
Glad to help.

I would recommend you shock treat the water system, flush it with fresh water several times, then change out the hoses, and then re-shock treat the water system, and flush again. Then do a final flush with some vinegar, to help get rid of the chlorine aftertaste.
SVDS- This same treatment might help with your 30 gallon tank and make the water useable for non-potable uses.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
