Quicksilver 855WE — System & Component Overview and Operation
sump pump which pushes the water in to the grey water tank. On your boat, galley sink drains via
gravity to the grey water tank, while the head sink and shower drain goes to a sump pump.
Dockside Pumpout
The dockside pumpout deck plate is located on the starboard side under the LPG storage lid, and is
marked with the ISO symbol WASTE. The grey water deck plate is located on the INBOARD side, next
to the waste deck plate. The dockside facility will have the proper connections / fittings to pump the
grey water tank out.
Macerator (optional)
The optional macerator gives the boat operator the means of discharging the grey water tank directly
overboard through a seacock in the bottom of the hull. The macerator control is located on a separate
panel located on the front face in the starboard battery panel tub. Since direct overboard discharge is
prohibited in many areas, the macerator seacock is normally closed.
To Operate the Macerator:
1. Make sure the macerator seacock is in the open position.
The dockside pumpout deck plate does not have a chain
connecting the cap to the deck plate. Use caution not to
drop the deck plate cap into the water.
