Beneteau First 38S5 Townsville
Just taken on Beneteau First 38S5 and trying to find which bilge the showers drain into. I think they are clogged ..... The switches on the panel and in the showers don't seem to be doing anything. Asked Beneteau for drawing apparently none on file!
Assistance or bright ideas would be appreciated

I think if it is like my same era boat they drain into "the bilge" there may be no shower pan the water flows to the bilge and is handled by your bilge pump.

I used to have a 1992 B38s5, and it was the two head model. Each shower had it's own pump, and in-line filters, under the aft cabin.

Shower water, icebox/fridge water and AC condensate will turn a bilge into a stinky primordial soup that can make a whole boat smell like a swamp or even a sewer. So if there are no sumps, install them...'cuz sumps are a lot easier to keep clean than bilges.
