Just basic inlet, vent, and supply line.
Supply line is a copper tube, bent into place and securely epoxied into place, ... a la Charlie Jones (thanks for the idea, CJ!)
Inlet and vent go up at the aft wall of the V-berth, through the coachroof to vent and fill fittings.
Pump is a Jabsco 2.6 and is the quietest pump I have heard on any boat or RV. Got lucky on that one (just bought the best-price, discontinued, small pump I could find).

Nice job! I was aiming for 14 +/- gals, ended up at 18 Gals. -- Sam Hunter, '93 Mac26S, Atlanta & Pensacola -- 5/7/09 3:02p.m.

I know its 18 because first fill was one gallon jug at a time. -- Sam Hunter, '93 Mac26S, Atlanta & Pensacola -- 5/7/09 3:04p.m.
