1990 2700 scr plumbing
Hey Folks!!!
wondering if I could get the plumbing in my boat explained.
I have a stern mounted shower, head, shower and sink in the cabin.
I was told the head pulls water straight from the lake, but I am unsure of that.
I do see an inlet ( brass fitting) on the bottom of the boat.
I have not been able to make the showers work. Any help on this would be great

Yes, the head draws water from the bottom of the boat after you turn the ball valve to the on position. Always shut the valve off when you are leaving the boat for a day or more.
Do you have the owner's manual for your boat. Many of these things are explained in it. Send me a note if you need one and I can PM you one in PDF format.
There is one pump that operates from the switch (located on the right side of the galley counter beside the fridge). That switch must be on for the pump to move water from your fresh water storage tank to the stern shower, the head shower, the vanity sink and the kitchen sink.

As mentioned earlier, that is the water intake for the head.
That intake allows water to run into your head (when you pump the head) through a water pipe inside the boat. That pipe has the ball valve on it (valve is located on the right side under your companionway step and as mentioned you must turn the lever on for water to enter then turn if off when you leave the boat).
You don't seem to have a good handle on your boat plumbing system. Perhaps a visit with a seasoned power cruiser or a local marine dealer would be of great assistance.

West Marine has articles on plumbing and even sell a book on it.

Send me a private message, and I will send a pdf file of the manual to you. It's too large for this site.

Sorry to jump in but would any of you happen to have a Manuel for a 2001 2300sr fresh water system? I have been looking for months and just found this forum today. This fresh water system has not been working and i cant find the Manuel anywhere to work on it.
This would be a huge help.
Thank you so much

Folks. The OP started a post on showers. We now have 2 hijacks asking for general direction on manuals.
Please avoid hijacking other people's threads. There are hundreds of posts on Manuals if you use a search. If you cannot find what you're looking for, start your own thread.

Jim,
I have a 1990 2500scr that I have no power to the switch for the fresh water pump. Could you email me a copy of the manual you have, or do you have the correct one for my craft?
I tried to PM, but I a too new of a member
Thanks

The manual I send is the 1990 2755 SCR one. It's different from the 2555 SCR.
BTW, it would be easier and more proper on this site to start up a new thread. Shrew will have his shorts in a knot - this is the 3rd highjack on this thread.

OK - at the risk of everyone's shorts getting in a knot - I must apologize to Jeff. I saw my manual a short while ago, and lo and behold - it's for the 2555 and the 2755 scr models.
I just sent it to you Jeff via email and it's 11.7mb in pdf, so hope you can open it.
Ahh - the golden years (my ass they are).
