-87 Carver 4207: Black water coming into toilet!?
Ok, so forward toilet...just working through de-winterizing everything. Boat was recently out of water getting new bottom paint and everything was fine.
Boat was put back in water, I go to see it, walk in the forward head and there's water on the floor and the toilet is full.
I looked below the generator where the water inlet is connected to the seacock and the tube is NOT connected there. (They disconnect them for the winter).
I'm only saying this as there's only one other place (that I can think of!) that would bring water into the toilet and that's the black water tank.
I don't know why or how but it's full. I can run the toilet (again, not currently hooked up to the seacock water inlet) and it drains the toilet bowl but an hour later, it's full again
Please help!!
Thank you

Quick question, what was the water like that refilled the head and overflowed on the floor? Nice and clean or not nice and clean.

Are you sure you don't have fresh water flush and a leaking solenoid?

As mentioned in my original post, the inlet from the seacock is not currently connected.

Is that something you have installed on your boat ?

Not giving you a hard time on this, but why are you waiting on the marina to do this? If this had happened to me, I would have immediately driven my boat over to the pump out dock and taken care of it.
