<br />my 84 has a pump out cap on the stbd side walk around. The boat has a porta potty and not connected to the shank. Does this mean that at some point there was a holding tank or did Catalina plumb in the pump out cap and shank?

Could be that some PO was going to install a marine head, started the job with installation of the deck fittings, then changed his mind and never did the rest of the installation. Or, if the deck fitting was put on at the factory, it could have been due to a mistake on the purchase order or something similar.

Hi Pierre,

The cap you describe is right where the fresh water fill inlet is ... is there any chance you've confused the two?

"pump out cap on the stbd side walk around."

I'm with Buzz on this... all the C25's I've seen have the head on the portside.
Having a pumpout on the starboard side would require some rather unusual plumbing.

Yeah, the fresh water tank fill is on the starboard side. Inserting a pumpout hose there is a mistake you don't even want to make once.
