I wouldn't consider it SPAM. No more so than recommending a product that I have used on my boat. Sorry to have offended anyone. |

No one is offended here. Everyone is welcome here. Considering your first post was for a product called big orange and your forum name is big orange well it is only logical to conclude that we were getting spammed. How bout an introduction, which Four Winns do you have? |

I don't actually have a Four Winns. I am a Rinker owner. I was drawn to the site because my brother in-law is selling his 251 Liberator and I just wanted to see if there was any interest in this boat from the members. It is kind of a rare boat considering the model, condition and powertrain(s). I put the post under the "Older Models" section if anyone is interested. The second reason for my being on this site is a bit of recon. Just looking around to see if the Four Winns people have the same issues as I have been dealing with. As you maybe be able to tell by the previous post, I am launching a marine product that I developed from my experience with holding tank odors on boats with fixed heads. Yes I am trying to promote my product, however I thought it may be very relavent to the membership. I have been in contact with Scott but he has yet to give me a price for ad space. |

There was a thread on here not long ago discussing Rinkers. I was actually working on my buddy 230 yesterday. What type of issues are you having? |

No Rinker specific issues, more boating lifestyle related issues.You never know where you'll find a solution to getting that dock line just right. |

Well, maybe time to bring this thread back to life. I am considering one of these filters. I have no affiliation with the company, or OP. Just would be nice to have the potential for odors eliminated or reduced as much as possible. Deodorizer does okay, but it does not completely get rid of it. Not sure if $125 is fair, depending on how long it lasts before a refill is needed. Check it out if you wish. http://www.bigorangefilter.com/ |

I actually emailed them to get some extra detail. very quick response. Here's an overview: Quote: The volume of carbon in the Big Orange filter is 1,500 cubic centimetres which is significantly larger than other filters. The Big Orange is also easily refillable when needed. You retain the housing and replace only the carbon and the filter screens (provided in the refill kit). This means owning the Big Orange is more economical than your current filter as the refill kit is priced at $20 CAD and a replacement cartridge for the Sealand will be upwards of $100 (depending on model). Unlike other filters the Big Orange filter cartridge is removed and reinstalled in the boat without the use of tools. This is helpful especially on installations where working space is an issue. Big Orange also comes equipped with a filter by pass valve to negate any restriction that the filter creates in the vent line. This valve is automatic and opens when the holding tank is being pumped out. If you order a filter and refill kit at the same time you will save on shipping compared to ordering separate. Shipping cost for a filter unit is $20 CAD and shipping for filter and refill kit combined is $25 CAD. I have a Sealand filter (and a spare). I may go another season with the spare... But after that, i will definitely think hard about going this route before dropping $80+ on a new filter. |
