Pump out on a C30

[Bob]

I am going to borrow a friend C30 for a week and I need to know how to pump out the head. He has a maserator pump. Does this run instead of pumping or does it do the pumping or does the pump at the station do the pumping. I know where the head pump out opening is on the deck I just don't what to put where and I don't want to blow SH*T all over the dock.Can someone help me?

You just need one or the other,

If you use a pump out station make sure the thru hull for macerator & toilet are CLOSED. Remove deck cap (do this at dock first, most have corroded shut) stick nozzle in and open. It's a giant crap vacuum and is gonna (hopefully) suck all the stuff up out of the tank.Method 2 is to get 3 NM offshore, close toilet intake thru hull, open macerator thru hull, flip switch to on till pump sound goes up in pitch (empty), turn off switch, close macerator thru hull.

Just pull the boat up to the marinas gas pump and suage pump out.They'll handle everything.
