The V-Berth tank was 45 gallons, the starboard settee tank was 35 gallons and the hot water heater was 6 gallons for a total of 86 gallons. The meter not only answered my question, it now makes it easier to fill the tank, no more overfilling and with the flow meter we can better estimate the time it takes to fill the tank. There is a short piece of ?¡± hose attached to the shut off valve that fits in to the in the deck fill.<1A51E45C-044E-4E60-8C68-BDF26BC83BBE_1_105_c.jpeg>DaveSecond StarS362 #113Fair Haven, NY/Lake OntarioOn May 22, 2025, at 2:25?PM, Capt.
