It will have a prominent fixture on it that has a two inch flexible hose coming off the side. You will know it is a pump out dock because it should have lots of signs on it. In many places around the world, a dock that is designed exclusively for pumping boats out is available to recreational boaters. Please never confuse these two filling ports on your boat and if you do decide to fill your freshwater tank while on the pump out dock, be sure to use the spigot that says potable or drinking water and never cross-contaminate the hose. You may also find the fresh water fill on the deck of your boat in a similar configuration to your waste water and holding tanks. It really bears no relation to pumping out the holding tanks other than while you are at the pump out dock, oftentimes there is a fresh water hose available for potable water that should never be used in any way with your holding tanks. This tank should never be confused with either of the previously mentioned tanks as this is water that can be consumed by humans and animals. As such, it should never be dispersed on any human or animals consumed plants or food sources. Other things like food particles, dirty clothes and bath water also give this water a distinctly disgusting quality. The presence of these bacteria, (particularly if you are one who urinates in the shower) can make this water very smelly and almost equally gross as black water. It may, however, contain bacterias and soap products that are noxious to the water environment and should not be discharged in bodies of water that do not intersperse readily with the world ocean environment. Grey Water by definition may contain no fecal matter. If your boat navigates exclusively in non-discharge zones along Coastal and Inland waters, you are required to collect all of the “grey”water. Some boats combine grey and black water into one tank, while others separate them. The grey water tank is a much less innocuous sounding facility and not all boats have them.
This is the tank that holds the washing water on a boat. It is these anaerobic bacteria, combined with the bacteria of your lower bowel that create a truly odoriferous experience for anyone forced to sleep in the vee berth or tasked with the duty of emptying said tank.
#COBALT BOATS SEPTIC TANK FREE#
This mixed with paper products, water and stirred exuberantly by the motion of the boat and left in an oxygen free environment for partial anaerobic consumption is to blame. It gets this smell not from your colon necessarily, but from the sodden, festering marinated combination of all forms of human effluence. The black water tank on a boat usually has a nasty smell and as such is usually located under the least desirable bunk on the boat- usually under the vee berth. So I guess it makes sense that they share a name. The very term brings up secrets, unmentionables and private human functions. I am not sure that it Is it any coincidence that the most well known private mercenary force responsible for countless war crimes shares the same name as the tank that holds the foulest of human byproducts.
