Recently acquired 2004 Beneteau 311. Can't seem to figure out how to get the drain in the refrigerator to work. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Like mine?

My 2002 B361 has a bilge pump connected to the fridge drain. Its breaker is on the same circuit as the shower sump pump. It is activated by pressing a small black rubber covered momentary switch that is mounted over the icebox. Mine is marked "Refrig drain", but the label could easily fall off.

Hope this helps,
Agaliha

Re: Like mine?

My boat fridge drain goes into the same seacock that the sink drain goes into. It is a 2-position valve...one position drains the fridge, the other position allows you to pump in seawater to rinse your sink with a footpump. It puzzled me when I first got the boat....not sure whether Agalihas answer, or mine, will help you. Let us know what you determine.

On 331, Shower drain and refer use the same sump button located in Head. You will have to switch the seacock Under Sink in Head from one to the other before use,

Fridge Drain

On a 323 there is a pipe from the bottom of the fridge to the bildges so if you wash the fridge out you then have to empty the water out .. :eek:

On my 2006 B323 there is a drain in the fridge that goes to an electric pump, then out a thru-hull next to the sink drain.

Thanks for all the help. Through some trial and error, got it figured out. In the head under sink there are 5 seacocks. You turn off all but the one connected to the refrigerator compressor that is to the right. Then you use the pump switch located on the sink. Make sure you have the refrigerator turned off.
