I’ve never seen it used but from previous threads here, most people say that it’s too rigid for boat use. From various replies here, the issue seems to be that the pipe holds up just fine (and better than sanitation hose) but the constant vibration/pounding/movement of the boat will always have an impact on the connections when you’ve got a bunch of elbows to get from the head to the holding tank.

I had no problems with it, Is there a reason it's not used in boats? See you in Paradise!! Capt.
