On this episode we install a black water hand pump and a new Jabsco Y Valve. Then we take to the high seas where we are amazed by an unexpected Suprise! Whale Pump: www.amazon.com... Jabsco Y-Valve: www.amazon.com...
Good job on your install, be aware of the regulations on your Y valve. Type III MSDs having a through hull Y valve must only be opened when the vessel is offshore, beyond the limit of U.S. territorial waters. At all other times, the valve must be positively secured in a way that presents a physical barrier to valve use and prevents all discharges. Adequate means include the use of padlock, non-releasable wire-tie, or removal of the valve handle. For more information see 33 CFR 159.7.
Great channel! just found an watch all videous! I am also a new owner of Catalina 30 MKii, got it about in the same time as you. The toilet jobs were the first to tackle as well. I had the same pump as you bought, but it failed miserably on my last time using it. Hinges that stick uses for rotation fall off. But I do not know how old pump was to be honest. From manufacture description it is not rated as a tank pump out. Ordered Whale BP0527 as a replacement, will see how it will work.
