The folks who built the Mainship must really have been "out to lunch" when it came to quality control. In my MS 400, Hull No. 222, when they put the deck onto the hull, they pinched the discharge hose from the head to the tank and the ventilation hoses from the forward AC to the head and second berth.
In the case of the discharge hose, they just cut it off, filled with effluent, and put a wooden plug in both ends. It ended up permeating everything it touched. I've changed all hoses to correct their poor quality.
I changed the ventilation hoses and you can't believe the difference. I now get lots of air blowing into the head and second berth.
I can't believe that my boat is the only one with this problem. Look around on your Mainship. You might have the same problems. Picture attached of the pinched ventilation hose.
