Your holding tank should be under the floor of the aft cabin between the bed and head entrance. Also your shower sump and aft bilge pump should be in the same area. Two removable panels under the carpet.

I will check when I get to it this weekend, but aft cabin carpet seems to be one unit, unlike main cabin there are no visible panels on the floor in aft cabin.

Mine is also one piece. Start at the rear under the nightstand and pull it towards the front of the boat.

Yes they were there after all. There were 2 large panels and 2 small ones. And tank is there. Also found bilge was dirty. Put some cleaning agent, will go back clean up tomorrow.
