Holding tank plumbing
The 1.5 inch hose from the head goes to a Y valve. From the Y valve, one goes overboard and one goes to the holding tank via a 1.5 inch PVC pipe. The PVC to the holding tank runs under the starboard seat in the main cabin, then under the galley sink and then into the holding tank.
The PVC out of the tank runs up to just under the floor where it connects to a reinforced hose. That hose runs through the wet locker and then behind the electric panel to the deck fitting.
The holding tank sensor was purchased from Sailor's Solutions. It is modified with a tube glued to the top to help protect the wires. The wires run up under the galley sink and follow the PVC from the head to the holding tank and connect to the readout that is located on the head sink cabint.

The hose in the fourth photo labled, "ignore this hose" is the disconnected intake hose. It looks like it joins the PVC heading back to the holding tank, but it is just resting there.
