Washdown Pump Plumbing
I can't figure out where the deck wash down pump should connect. There are no "T fittings" that I can see off the tank.
Anyone know?

Re: Washdown Pump Plumbing
Personally I wouldn't be using water from the on-board tank for wash-down. In a salt water app, I'd just hook up to a thru-hull to get things started, then do a final rinse with fresh water when I returned to the dock and can hook up to dockside water.
What would you be washing down that couldn't be done first with salt water (I assume that's what you're in) then do a final rinse at the dock?

Re: Washdown Pump Plumbing
1- Its own seacock in the aft bildge. 2- Plumbed to freshwater tank.
Since I don't have the above mentioned seacock/thruhull, I have to assume it originally went the the tank.
I don't plan to use it much at all. I just don't like having things in disrepair is all.
