Has anyone tried a flexible bladder type holding tank in the aft battery compartment? I like Arlyn's Todd tank posted in his mods but I want to explore all options. I just bought a new PHII since the wife isn't crazy about a used porta potti.

Hi Steve:

My advice: DON'T! About a month ago I pulled the rubber bladder holding tank out of my C 25 because of the SMELL! I am replacing it with a hard tank.

As Will knows, I totally disagree. The boat he pulled the bladder from was mine before it was his, and I agree that _that_ bladder needed replacement. But there are lots of benefits to fitment and tank choice. As long as you do the install right, you'll be ok either way.
