I`ve heard of people exiting a toilet and helpfully suggesting to the next in line "Give it 5 minutes mate", but this is different. Here`s a news report to set the scene:
https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw...at-tragedy-investigation-20190205-p50vpo.html.
So far investigations continue but a ferry carrying up to 475 pax could generate considerable quantities of sewage onboard. Especially depending on frequency of pumpout.
I recall a cruise ship where walking the promenade deck at one spot was seriously unpleasant due to odor.
We have many threads about tank odors leading to discussing the origin, but this is serious. No one ever raised this level of trouble but, could it happen, has it happened, on a recreational boat?
