The DPO of my 38 sport fisher plumbed the fresh water tank as an expansion water tank to the starboard engine. When the engine got low on water, he just flipped the fresh water pump and filled it. In a drunken rage, he broke all the mirrors on the boat his ex-wife used to look into. He saved every single broken part/hose/wire/pump ever known to the boat and stored them in the bilge.
