Interesting, I will have to try this. We have only pressure water (no manual pump) and a small household bar sink faucet, so flow is pretty good, and I can slow it to trickle - I think the pump is about 2.5GPM. On our first 3-4 day outing, with my wife doing dishes, we drained the tank in a long weekend (35 USG). Now, with more careful use, we managed about 10 days over the summer. Little things, like using a cup for brushing teeth, and not filling the sink to wash dishes (just fill the largest bowl/pot, and wash things in it), help a lot. Not having a backup water pump is a concern, and I plan to toss a spare RV pump on board just in case, but was thinking about maybe re-installing the old sea water foot pump after rebuilding it, and maybe plumbing in a valve so it could draw from the tanks in an emergency. -- Shawn Wright shawngwri...@gmail.com S/V Callisto, 1974 C&C 35 https://www.facebook.com/SVCallisto
