Just wondering if it's possible to a holding tank, or at least a pump out porta to a WB.

Hi PB,

Yes, the C250 had several factory options.
Tiller or Wheel Steering (all versions)
Porta-Potty or Marine Head (all versions)
Standard rig or Tall rig (Wing-Keel only, but only available for a few years)
Outboard or Inboard Diesel (Wing-Keel only)

For the C250WB the marine head might have only been available for tiller steering.
The tank is near the transom, aft of the bulkhead.
Because wheel steering has the rudder control arm through the transom, there might not be room for the tank.
I have not heard of anyone converting from a Porti-Potty to a marine head.

I don’t have one, so someone with a marine head please reply.

Hmm. That is well reasoned. So the tank may be located directly against the transom were then pedestal pulleys and wire pass through.

I guess a pump out potti might still be possible assuming the plumbing can be run to the transom or deck?
