O/I 41 holding tank

[tatoloco]

Maybe a silly question......did all O/I 41s come standard with a holding tank?
Any further info on this will be appreciated !

Cheers !

Ours didn't. We installed a 15 gal. just inboard of the fuel tank, along with an electrosan - which normally delivers overboard except when we are in a Zero Discharge Zone.

My 1976 OI did not come with a holding tank. The po had installed a bladder tank. I removed that and installed a 35 gallon plastic type tank between the engine and the fuel tank. Built a shelf with a three inch lip then straped it down.

My 1973 Morgan OI was built before the Clean Water Act of the same year and the typical installation of holding tanks that became standard much later. I removed the large water tank under the V-berth where I installed a 25 gallon holding tank and then a smaller holding tank under the starbord side of the aft berth,- a separate holding tank for each head.
