Pump out toilet tube

[Manxcat54]

Hello everyone

 

I removed the pump out toilet tank from the boat I am currently refurbing, the 2 1/4 tube connecting the tank to the pump out entry situated on the Gunwales was cut through when we cut the tank out, however the bit that is still left under the side of the boat is in the way for a couple of reasons, so does anyone know how this tube connects to the brass fitting, I must admit to not yet investigating, but I was thinking would it be a locking ring on the outside on the top of the Gunwales, can anyone advise?

You may find a few inches of flexible 40mm pipe on the spigot from the brass fitting to the steel pipe. Undo the 4 srews in the fitting and see what happens

Mine simply screws down to the walkway with 3-screws - like this :

 

Unscrew it and it, along with the stub of pipe, should lift out.

 

 

 

 

Edit - sorry, 4 screws.

I have just had an idea, 2¼" to fit on a 38mm spigot. Put a piece of 38mm hose on the spigot then ram it inside the steel pipe . Maybe that is how it was fitted

I feel a bit relieved now, when I return to the boat that bugger is coming out, thanks for the replies
