    It's not even necessary to pay a premium for TP labeled "marine/rv."
    'Cuz it's just very cheap flimsy TP repackaged and marked up 300%.

    To determined whether any TP is suitable for use in marine toilet--ANY
    marine toilet--tear off a sheet and put in a glass of water. Come back
    in an hour or two...if the water is milky and all that's left of the TP
    is a little "snow," it's the same thing as "marine/rv" TP and safe for
    use aboard. But if it's still an intact--or mostly intact--sheet, keep
    looking.

    Btw...even a clog caused by a major overload of the right kind of TP is
    no reason to start tearing anything apart. Just wait...it'll dissolve on
    its own in an hour or two. It's only when somebody flushes something
    they shouldn't have--wet wipe, facial tissue, tampon, condom, paper
    towel--that you have no choice but to clean it out. But 99x out of 100,
    that only happens if you neglect to tell your guests that NOTHING goes
    into the toilet except what they've eaten first and the TP supplied.
