Grey and Black Water

(please note, we advise not to use the washing machine regularly as this will fill up the grey water quickly. Remember this is a boat and the vessel has adequate tanks if users use sensibly and not overdo it.

The same goes for ‘black water’ sewerage. There are 6 toilets on board. Please try to use half flush and try to refrain from overuse. There are two black water tanks (sewerage). Tanks will last for 10 days with 10 people on board if used sensibly.

If toilet flushing is excessive then the tanks will fill and we will need to organise to pilot to empty the tanks for you (at an extra cost to you). Also if tanks get full this may cause an odour and become uncomfortable.

Please call Cheryl at any time if this happens and I will give you directions of what to do depending on the circumstances and where you are on the river. My phone number is 0488 004 677 and I am available at all times.
