Stus-List Adding a third water tank...
Hello, I have two options of tank inlet; * Tie into (with "Y" valve") existing water fill hose. Advantage is one less deck hole for the fill. Disadvantage is a low point in the fill hose between tank and y-valve where stagnant water will sit for a bit between fills. * Separate fill inlet. Advantage - No low points. Disadvantage is another hole in the deck. Any practical experience with this out there? Thanks in advance David F.

I've got single fills for 2 fuel tanks and 2 water tanks. The Y is above the top of the tanks.

Yup…but the run between fill and new tank will dip below tank before rising again to tank itself…hence low point. David F.

Adding a deck fitting and a shorter?? run of hose may be easier and less aggravating than the Y-valve option. I wouldn't think twice about adding a deck fitting. Been there, done that. If you have a nice clear location in a nearby cabinet, punch the hole, epoxy coat any balsa core, overbore and fill the deck fitting fastener holes and done deal. Dennis C.
