The two methods of emptying the grey water tanks are described below.
Use waste tank deodorizer inside the grey water tanks between
pumpouts.
4.6.1 Dockside Discharge
With the dockside discharge method, grey water is stored in the grey
water tanks until it can be transferred to a dockside pumpout station. To
empty the tanks:
1. Locate a dockside pumpout station.
2. Remove the grey water tank deck plate labeled “WASTE” using the
removal tool supplied with your boat. This plate is located on the
forward port side deck. Refer to 9.7.2 Deck Plates for the exact
location of this plate.
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 grey water to the dockside holding station.
5. After all grey water is removed, flush the grey water tanks by pour-
ing 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
grey water.
6. Replace the “WASTE” deck plate.
4.6.2 Overboard Discharge
NOTE: It is against the law to discharge grey water overboard in some
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 grey
water overboard in restricted areas are subject to significant penalties.
With the overboard discharge method, grey water is stored in the grey
water tanks until you enter an area where it is legal to pump the grey
water directly overboard. Or, you can still use a dockside pumpout
station to empty the grey water tanks.
To empty the tanks:
