[C320-list] Water in master bedroom

[Chris Burti]

 I didn’t see Diane’s original post, but as that small locker is not really very accessible to water leaking from the tank inspection port, I would suspect the stanchion on the deck above it as another likely suspect.

Thanks,

Hi Diane.
Didn't see any answers, so I will chime in.

That is a common problem if you fill the front tank with valves to both
tanks open.  The aft tank is lower and it will overfill.  The water is
probably coming out of the access port, which is prone to leaking.
Sometimes this can be solved by lubricating the access port, but the best
solution is to fill tanks separately and open the valves only when you are
drawing from that tank.

Hello, again,
Yesterday, I refilled the bow water tank and may have overfilled??
Found water in the angled storage place under the SEAT in master aft
cabin!!!? Tasted it - FRESH water.
Any ideas???
