I am a new owner of a 2012 B37. It has 2 water tanks. One is 3/4 full and the other is 1/2 full. So, they must not be connected! where can I find a valve to use one or the other? Thanks in advance.

Ours has a manifold with valves for each tank under the port setee. We've been rotating between the front and aft tanks periodically to ensure neither sits too stagnant.

I strongly recommend that you take a look at your owner's manual. It will have that answer in there and a lot more excellent info about your boat that is critical to understand for safe sailing and maintenance. Your boat should have come with a binder full of manuals for each component on the boat: head, battery charger, microwave, winches, etc. It will pay for you to become familiar with those manuals too.

Look under the port side settee. You will see your water system valves that are Marked 1-2-3. In the manual you will see which tank is labelled front/rear. I recommend you only use one tank preferably Forward(weight distribution) unless you need more capacity for trip. I usually put some water purifier or vinegar in tank not being used to keep critters out of water.

Thanks for the input. I have read the info several times, The water section must be missing. I have seen the water system under the port seats but was looking for lever valves. I will look in more detail on my next visit to the boat.

Page 72 of my owners manual. You're looking for white knobs about 1" round on a manifold.
