I have a vague idea of where it is located exactly, but during the vessels survey I saw it and thought of this thread. If you look in front of the coolant tank on the starboard engine you should see the filter. It's kind of wedged in there. As for height, I remember it being about in the middle. When final survey report comes in there might be a picture where I can highlight it, if not, I'll take a picture next time I'm down at the boat. A good reference might be about a foot or so to the right of the fire extinguisher bottle located next to the ladder. Hope this helps, if not, I'll take note of it next time I'm there.

I have an 02 3100. I had to replace all sanitation lines to get rid of the smell. It was instantly better once I got those old sanitation lines off the boat.
Suggest you change all the sewage hoses if they haven't been changed in 10 years or so. Do the rag check on them. Any odor at all means you need to change them. It works and isn't that hard to do, just plan a day for it and while the toilet is out, take an hour or two and fully rebuild it. And George is the go to answer man on Vacuflush!
on my 1998 express 3500, the vacuum tank and pump is located under the stairs when you enter the cabin, you open the stairs and take everything out, there is a door / cover there so if you remove it you will find it. The holding tank on my boat is under the lounge seat right below the breaker panel you remove the seat cushions, open the latch and remove the door/cover on the bottom.
