Alex,
Be sure to check out Noonsite: https://www.noonsite.com/place/usa/ The lack of a holding tanks could be an issue for you as you cannot discharge "black water" within 3 miles of shore. It's a significant fine on the order of US$2000 if you are found to be in violation of the law. Here is a link to the EPA website regarding this issue: https://www.epa.gov/vessels-marinas-and-ports/vessel-sewage-frequently-asked-questions#ndz At the end of the EPA page there is a list of people you can contact about this. I would contact one of them and see what they say, -- Mark McGovern SM #440 Cara Deale, MD USA
