BOATS
Drainage Systems
Bow Seat Storage Compartments
The bow seat storage compartments are equipped
with drain fittings that drain by gravity to the bilge.
Below Deck Cockpit Storage compartment
The storage compartment below the cockpit drains
to the bilge.
Rope Locker
The rope locker drains overboard through a fit -
ting in the hull side at the bow. It is important
to inspect the drain frequently to remove any ac-
cumulated debris.
Head Compartment
The head sink drains by gravity to a thru-hull fit -
ting in the hull side. The compartment sole drains
to the bilge.
If the boat is equipped with the optional grey
water system, the sink and compartment sole will
drain to the grey water sump system. Refer to the
Grey Water System in this chapter for additional
information for the system.
8.4 Grey Water System
If your boat is equipped with this option, all sinks
and the head compartment sole are drained by
the sump system which pumps the waste water
to the waste/grey water holding tank in the bilge.
The sump system is controlled by an automatic
switch in the sump and is protected by a circuit
breaker in the battery switch panel. The sump
system is activated whenever the HOUSE battery
switch is on and is located in the in-floor storage
compartment bilge.
The fluid level in the waste/grey water holding
tank is monitored by a lighted LED symbol in the
toilet control panel in the head compartment. The
symbol lighted green indicates the waste tank is
less than half full. Symbol lighted yellow indicates
the tank is at least half full. Symbol lighted red
indicates the waste tank is full.
When the waste/holding tank is full, it must be
pumped out by an approved waste dumping sta-
tion. You should monitor the waste level carefully
and not allow the tank to become full. A lockout
system built into the toilet prevents it from flush -
ing when the holding tank is full. Never attempt
to flush the toilet or operate the sinks or shower
when the tank is full. An overfilled waste tank
will force waste into the holding tank vent filter.
This will clog the holding tank vent filter, prevent
the sinks from draining and could cause damage
to the holding tank. It will also cause unpleasant
odors or flood the head compartment floor.
Notice:
The overboard macerator discharge pump
option for the waste holding tank is not avail-
able with the grey water system.
