Re: Stus-List Water tank size. Is there more than one? 30MkII 1988

[Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List]

To confirm, we also have the same configuration, stbd & vee water tanks + 6
gallons in the water heater. Holding is 30ish as Allan said. One of the
selling points of the 30-2 is that you have tankage equal to larger boats
and will make a nice small cruiser. Fuel is 18-19 gallons, which is plenty
for running up the coast from Astoria to the San Juans and Gulf Islands.

We love our 30mkII and only now that we have a 1 year old is it starting to
feel a bit small. I would love to buy another Rob Ball era boat when the
time comes. I very much covet a 1996 36xl at our club. It is a beautiful
and larger version of our own, that is set up well for racing and a bit
better for longer trips offshore. Perhaps some day...

Best,
Kevin

My 30-2 has 28 US gallon under the v-berth, 19 US gallon under the starboard 
seat, 6 US gallon hot water tank in the cockpit locker for a total of 53 US 
gallons. The holding tank is 33 US gallons and it's also in the cockpit locker

Re: Stus-List Water tank size. Is there more than one? 30MkII 1988

[allen via CnC-List]

Septima has two tanks; one under starboard settee, one under the vee berth. 
A little over 42 gallons.  I added a bladder tank behind the port settee 
plumbed to the head so we get a fresh water flush and no stinky bay water in 
the head.  Offshore I can change over to ocean water to conserve fresh 
water.  Used only for the head, it's only about 10 gallons and it's useful 
for lateral trim.

There is often confusion between imperial and american gallons, and 
sometimes litres. I used to prepare daily cost analysis reports first 
thing in the morning, and the last thing to do before printing it off and 
handing it to the bosses was what we called the "sanity check" - do the 
numbers make sense.


78 imperial gallons of water weighs 780 pounds.

On the other hand, 78 litres is equivalent to 20.6 U.S. gallons, which is 
a pretty common size.

Re: Stus-List Water tank size. Is there more than one? 30MkII 1988

[Jim Reinardy via CnC-List]

The way ours is set up is that the whole system pulls from one tank or the 
other.  There is a valve in the forward end of the port settee right by the 
pump.  I have a 3M filter on my galley sink that makes me comfortable drinking 
the water, yes.

Lorne,

 

My 1988 30-2 has 2 tanks as you describe, one starboard under the settee and 
one under the V-berth.  78 gallons total sounds about right.  The holding tank 
is aft, under the floor of the starboard lazerette next to the water heater.  
Not sure if that is a standard or optional configuration, but I am pretty sure 
it came from the factory this way.  Our boat was originally shipped to Traverse
