No Idea what that is. You might need to reset your keyboard to English |

I "think" it is a sump pump. Note, what looks like a drain hose at the top and a bilge hose at the bottom. I am thinking that I am looking down on it. But I have a funny feeling that this is a sde view of it by looking at the wood. |

What ever it is, there is no way to get at it, so I hope it keeps functioning! |

On my boat there is a black water tank under the main cabin. Looks like that could be the end of one. |

Also, my boat doesn't have a gray water system. When I get time, I'll have to follow the plumbing (as much as I can) and see where it goes. As far as I know, my 'front' bilge pump is also under the mid cabin (I just replaced that pump). Not sure I can get better pictures as my only access to it is through a 6" access door in the floor, which is where the above image was taken. There are no other access hatches forward in the floor. |

You will have to rip up the entire floor so Paul can have a better picture.

txvista....need you here on this one. I think his boat had 2 blackwater tanks at one time and he removed one of them/bypassed it. |

This is exactly where my mind is at - or, I understand there was an option from the factory to add additional 30G? to the blackwater tank. Maybe this was done by a 2nd tank. By looking at the manual, this is my blackwater tank - and the one under the mid cabin doesn't exist... I'll need to follow the plumbing to figure out, looks like 2 large pipes (one in, one pump out) and a small one (vent). |
