Black Water Tanks Carver 500

Postby Jdamon71 » October 13th, 2025, 10:29 am

Hi All ... I have a 1996Caver 500 CPMY and for the life of me cannot find the aft Black Water tank. I have found the Vaccu Pump, which sits under the floor in the owners cabin by the shower and tried to follow the pipe forward but loose it. In the Engine Room I Daylighted a waste pipe going aft through the stringer on the stbd side however I do not see a tank in the engine room. One thought was there is only on tank forward, but I do not see how that is possible with only one input and one output on the fwd tank. I have looked everywhere I can think of, even under the panel of the aft berth but only found the AC. HELP!

Thanks in Advance!

Jon

Likely two tanks, but I don't know that model. How many pump out fittings are on the deck?
