Holding Tank and Macerator Discharge Pump
The holding tank and vacuum generator is located in the engine compartment. The macerator pump is located
on the rear engine room bulkhead and accessed by lifting the bridge deck.
When the tank is full, the tank monitor will show full and the vacuum pump will not run. The tank must either
be pumped out by an approved waste dumping station through the waste deck fitting or be pumped overboard
with the macerator discharge pump, when legal to do so.
To operate the macerator discharge pump, open the ball valve at the overboard discharge thru-hull fitting.
Then activate the momentary macerator switch located in the holding tank monitor panel in the head
compartment, until the tank is emptied. Release the switch and close the discharge ball valve when pumping
is complete.
IN SOME WATERS, YOU CAN BE FINED FOR HAVING AN OPERABLE DIRECT OVER-
BOARD DISCHARGE OF WASTE. TO AVOID A FINE, REMOVING THE SEACOCK
HANDLE, IN THE CLOSED POSITION, OR OTHER MEANS MUST BE USED.
THE MACERATOR DISCHARGE PUMP CAN ONLY BE RUN DRY FOR A FEW OF SEC-
ONDS. ALLOWING THE MACERATOR PUMP TO RUN AFTER THE HOLDING TANK IS
EMPTY MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE PUMP.
Maintenance
The head should be cleaned and inspected for leaks regularly.
The holding tank should be pumped out and flushed as needed. Periodically add chemical to the head to help
control odor and to chemically break down the waste. See the manufacturer owner’s manual for additional
operating and maintenance information.
THE HEAD AND MACERATOR DISCHARGE SYSTEM MUST BE PROPERLY WINTERIZED
BEFORE WINTER LAY-UP. SEE THE SECTION ON WINTERIZING.
10.2 Galley and Sink
The galley is equipped with storage and a fresh water sink with hot and cold faucets. Water is supplied to the
sink by a 12-volt pump located in the engine compartment. When activated by the water pressure switch in
the 12-volt panel, the water system will operate much like the water system in a home. An automatic pressure
sensor keeps the system pressurized. The sink drains overboard through the cabin drain system to a sump pump
system below the access compartment under the steps. See the Fresh Water System chapter for more
information on operating the fresh water system.
