Figuring Out and Installing Head Plumbing on a Small Sailboat

Episode #180 - New Head Plumbing and Manual Black Water Pump

Hello Friends, This is a throwback project video from the summer of 2020 when we started the massive project of redesigning and rebuilding our head.

On this episode I get into figuring out how to fit all of the plumbing into the small space in our tiny head. On AMAZING upgrade (a downgrade to most people) is I removed our working electronic macerator pump and replaced it with a Whale Pumps manual black water diaphragm pump. This allows us to pump out our holding tank at sea without using any electricity and removes the fear of the macerator pump failing when the tank is full (they tend to only last a few years with regular use)

This video is for anyone trying to figure out how its possible to fit all the fittings into a small spot. It takes some creative thinking and staring at the space for hours on end.
