Waste Disposal Dockside Pump-out

To clear holding tank of wastewater, you need to use the dockside
pump-out services provided at certain marinas, etc.
To empty the tank of waste, hook suction hose to the pump-out plate and
to the dockside pump. The marina will handle the proper disposal of the
waste, and may charge for this service. After emptying, be sure to add
fresh toilet chemical per label directions.
