Water tanks(s) leaking into bilge

[Bruja Marina]

We have a leak in the main tank (66 gals) located under the main stateroom in the bow area. We searched the intake and found to problems. Need to know where is the out valve or exit of such a tank so we can trace the leak before I have to lift the tank out of the area and have it replaced or repaired.

We also seem to have another leak in the starboard tank (one of the two). How can I get to inspect it?

Fresh Water Leak

If the forward tank installation in your 466 is anything like the one on my 356 you will find an "isolation valve" where the output hose connects to the tank. This is nothing more then a shut-off valve to isolate the tank from the rest of the water system. Mine failed, filling the bilge with fresh water. Repair was a simple replacement job even though access to valve was awkward.
