How can you tell if it's time to change the waste hoses ?

Is there a period of time in which they need to be changed 10,15,25 years ?
 
I never heard of Rodneys wipe test. But hey if it works ....

My hoses were cracked after only 2 years ( rubber )but there was no odor. Searay paid to have the hoses replaced and upgraded to the white pvc.

7 years later all perfect ..

When is it time to change the hoses ? If it ain't broke don't fix it. My hoses are 93, no smell, I always flush a few times with clear water before we button up the boat to come home. Same after my morning constitution. Duck bills, seals, switches all work like new, occasionally have to prime the rubber seal in the bowl with some silicone and a rubber glove, but only in the spring during summerizing.. Vacuflush rocks !
