Not screwy, just different. My 1980 version has a separate intake hose for the 
head, and a Y valve, so I have three holes in the hull in that area, counting 
the sink drain.

Listers-

 

If you'll humor me again, I'd like to get your comments on how the head on my 
boat (30-1 #7) is currently plumbed.

 

The intake hose is teed into the vanity sink drain to its through hull.  The 
discharge hose goes to a holding tank only (no Y-valve for overboard discharge).

 

It's the intake hose I'm wondering about.  I suppose with the vanity sink drain 
through-hull seacock closed, e.g. when underway, I could pump fresh water into 
the head by first pumping it into the vanity sink and letting the sink drain.  
When not underway, with the vanity sink drain through-hull seacock open, I 
could pump raw water into the head.

 

Does that sound reasonable, or is my boat's head intake plumbing screwy?

 

Thanks,

Randy
