4600 sofa removal

[lhalffman]

I am replacing my corroded tank vent fittings with stainless parts and need to access the back side where the 5/8" hoses attach, starboard side. How do I remove the built in salon sofa to get to the backside of the vent fittings? 1998 4600 SCB.

Here’s a reply I posted Re the pump out hoses, if you look back on my posts there are a few how to’s as I refurbed a lot of my 4600. Feel free to ask if there is anything specific.

I think i remember seeing mine when I took the sofa out, there are 4 bolts or so which you can access from the storage area in the seat base which hold the seat backs on.

I think the hose ran down from the deck pump out and along behind the sofa and then into the holding tank via the engine bay and through the bulkhead behind the calorifier.

You can always trace it back from the holding tank.

Good luck!
