Kevin,Thanks for the additional detail. Is the hole through the cockpit locker bulkhead at roughly the same level as the hole entering the locker from the head? If you're able to take a photo of the bottom of your wet locker that would be very useful. At this point all I need to do is fir
Thanks for the insight Dave. You make some good points backed up with
experience! My tank already has openings for filling and emptying but I have
some say over how I route the waste line so I’ll try to heed your advice.

When you rout the hose try to minimize low areas between the head and tank in
which black water can sit in the hose. You will discover the precise volume
involved when your joker valve leaks.
Also, if you can choose, have the waste hose enter the tank at the boat’s
centreline rather than at
Interesting all. My waste hose does go through the wet locker, then turns
aft through the cockpit locker bulkhead, then vertical and inboard over the
water heater, then aft along the inboard side of the cockpit locker (under
the plywood floor) and then drops into the top of the tank. I imagine this
Al,
Sounds like our starting and ending points will be very similar - I wish
I had plastic tanks as you and Kevin do. I'm not looking forward to the
day in the future when my aluminum holding tank fails. It's in good
condition now, it fits the hull cavity perfectly, and I can't justify

Kevin,
My boat has/had the same tanks as yours, all in aluminum, and all
configured as fresh water tanks which are plumbed to a manifold on the
port side near the pressure pump. The tank under the settee was removed
by a previous owner - I assume it sprung a leak. I plan to keep the vee

Julian my 30-2 came or originally equipped with overboard discharge and 3
water tanks. I capped the water lines in the tank under the floor in the
starboard cockpit locker, my tank is plastic. The original set up has a vented
loop under the top of the sink cabinet, I kept the vented loop there
Julian,
I have a plastic holding tank in that location with a deck fitting directly
above set up from the factory that way I believe. Waste lines lead from the
head, through the bottom of the adjacent wet locker, and just under the
cockpit locker floor to the top of the holding tank, which is just
I’ve recently purchased a 1989 C&C30-2 which is not plumbed with a holding
tank. There is an aluminum fresh water tank beneath the starboard aft locker
that has an original manufactures label that calls it a waste tank. My guess is
that these boats came from the factory configured with this tank
