Hello,
I just put my 1996 Cat 250, new to me, in the water. I can find the freshwater supply tank and/or how the system works. Anyone able to help?

Hey Chris,

The freshwater tank on my 2005 is a 12-gallon and under the v-berth.
I seem to remember that earlier models had a 6-gallon tank.
The fill hose is connected to the anchor locker.
Open the anchor locker and look for a 2-inch chrome screw top.

If the tank hasn't been used for a few years, be prepared for mold.
Under the galley sink, check the hose and follow it back to the tank.

Chris,
1995 wb had 6 gal jug under the sink. If it was like mine, the jug just didn't work. I removed it and carried bottled water instead. there is a water line that runs forward under the V berth and back to sink in the head. many have put a tank under the V birth

My 1995 WB has a 6 gal tank aft of the head. The fill access is a plastic screw in on the port side coaming. PO added an electric pump to the line after the tee for the sink in the head so you get water flow to the galley. If I look aft past the companionway on the port side I can see it.
