Septima has two tanks; one under starboard settee, one under the vee berth.
A little over 42 gallons. I added a bladder tank behind the port settee
plumbed to the head so we get a fresh water flush and no stinky bay water in
the head. Offshore I can change over to ocean water to conserve fresh
water. Used only for the head, it's only about 10 gallons and it's useful
for lateral trim.

There is often confusion between imperial and american gallons, and
sometimes litres. I used to prepare daily cost analysis reports first
thing in the morning, and the last thing to do before printing it off and
handing it to the bosses was what we called the "sanity check" - do the
numbers make sense.
78 imperial gallons of water weighs 780 pounds.
On the other hand, 78 litres is equivalent to 20.6 U.S. gallons, which is
a pretty common size.

has two 30 gallon water tanks and a 20 gallon holding tank.
I highly doubt you have a 78 gallon water tank or a 35.5 gallon holding
tank on a 30'. That's a lot of tank.

Boats that weren't shipped to the Great Lakes frequently had the holding
tank plumbed as an extra water tank. Maybe?
