3. Attach the pumpout vacuum hose to the WASTE deck fitting. Because
the transfer process uses a vacuum action, there must be a secure
connection between the transfer hose and the deck fitting.
4. Activate the pumpout vacuum. The pumpout vacuum transfers onboard
waste to the dockside holding station.
5. After all waste is removed, flush the waste tank by pouring a few
gallons of fresh water through the WASTE deck fitting. Reattach the
vacuum hose to the deck fitting and activate the pumpout vacuum
again to remove the fresh water and any remaining waste.
6. Replace the WASTE deck plate.
Overboard Discharge
NOTE: It is against the law to discharge waste overboard in many areas of the United
States. It is your responsibility to make sure that you are in compliance with all
applicable federal, state and local laws when using your boat’s overboard
discharge system. People who discharge waste overboard in restricted areas
are subject to significant penalties.
In certain coastal areas of the world it is legal to discharge the waste
from your boat’s waste tank into the sea. To accommodate this procedure
Carver offers an optional overboard discharge system for your boat. This
system is available only on boats that are exported or used in the coastal
areas of the United States.
With the overboard discharge system, waste is flushed from the toilet to
the waste tank where it is stored. Where it is legal, you can then empty the
waste tank directly overboard. If overboard discharge is not legal where
you are, you can either wait until you reach an area where it is legal or use
a dockside pumpout station to empty the waste tank.
To empty the tank
1. Open the overboard discharge seacock. The seacock is located on the
aft bilge bulkhead.
2. Turn the Accessory Battery master disconnect switch to the ON position.
3. On the Safety Breaker Panel, switch the Main - One circuit breaker ON.
4. On the DC Control Center, switch the System DC Main circuit breaker
ON, then switch the Waste Pump circuit breaker ON.
5. Turn the overboard discharge pump switch ON. The switch is located
next to the Generator Master Switch. Refer to
the Sanitation System diagram in this section for the exact location of
this switch. This activates the overboard discharge pump, which pumps
the waste overboard.

A Tip From Carver!
The WASTE deck plate is not connected to the fitting and does not float. Be careful that you
don’t drop the plate in the water when you remove it. If you do lose the plate, you can order a
replacement from your Carver Dealer. WASTE deck plates are dropped overboard frequently
enough that we suggest you carry an extra in your onboard spare parts kit.
