I found a couple of cast stainless drains with a cast in 90 * 3/4in hose barb. 
Both of my  shower pans have  non existent access from below. I attached a 3/4 
hose to the barbed end fed it through the pan hole to the sump pump. Sealed and 
screwed the drain in place, been working for 4 years now. I use my showers on a 
regular basis.  I spend most of my life on the hook. Doug Mountjoy sv Rebecca

The 33-2 has an arrangement like its predecessor- the 34.  I would definitely 
not want a discharge into the keel sump/bilge.  the water travels via the 
spider and finds it’s way elsewhere.  Worth devising another arrangement.
I’m in the process of purchasing an alubat ovni  (Aluminum)  and it sections an 
area of the bilge as a contained shower sump, and has a pump and strainer 
specifically for that.   Like a tub  below the shower grate.   Similar in 
concept to the c&c which
 molds the very shallow sump into the liner, but much larger and deeper, making 
the pump-out plumbing easier to do with standard parts. 
I would think that the bilge below the shower could be contained similarly in 
most boats.

It works well to keep away mold.

True, but it's all in concentration. Too much and yes, you will eat through 
your keelbolts. Just a tiny bit, and you will kill the nasty stuff that grows 
in there. I once put a chlorine pellet in one of my strainers, and it it ate 
Holes through
 the stainless steel strainer . Having said all that, when I first got my 39, I 
decided to get all of the mildew out of it and took everything out of the boat, 
nice mixture of Tide, chlorine and ammonia, sprayed it all around, power washed 
it, rinsed it and
 sucked it out. If a little bit of cleaner is good, a lot is better right,? I'm 
lucky to be alive. Little did I know then that ammonia and chlorine creates 
mustard gas! Live and learn!

Add some anti bacterial detergent to the bilge and maybe a cup of chlorox/javex 
once in a while

Probably the reason for a separate pump and discharge that by-passes the bilge.

I have heard discharging shower grey water into bilge created a soapy/scummy 
mess in the bilge?

My 32 has the same set up...shower hose from the sink facet...sump with a teak 
grate....sump pump under the sink for a separate discharge just below the toe 
rail opposite the head starboard side.

All woks fine but never use it.

That was the set-up on the 42 Custom.  A shower hose was integral to the sink 
faucet.  On my boat, the shower head was attached to a wall rack for adjusting 
the height.  The floor is a teak grate with a very thin plastic catch pan 
underneath.  The pan drained
 to a “sump” pump with a separate discharge.  I removed everything but the 
drain pan, which now has a hose to drain to the bilge.  I’m in the process of 
installing a shower on deck for use after swimming.
