2 different sizes

There are 2 different sizes. It depends on what year boat you had. The earlier boats had a 26 gallon tank. Later boats have a 35 gallon tank. Have you looked at your tank? My boat is a 91 and it's on it's 3rd tank. I put the bigger tank in this time. We livaboard and can get a full week out of the tank before it needs to be pumped out.

2 weeks

We also live aboard and have a 35 gal. tank but we usually get 2 weeks before pumping out. (I guess we don't drink as much as Bill & Val ;) Actually, we're usually working or running around during the week so we're probably not aboard as much. We count 10 sec. for every flush. I'd guess it's about 1 gal. per flush. We installed a Wema tank monitor gauge when replacing the tank and it really takes the guesswork out of when to pump out.
