Shore water connection not working

Post by tdogg »

Hi All,

Our shore water hook up does not switch to allow water flow, we can only use the on board water tank.

Any thoughts on what the issue could be?

Check for a clog spiders love those little ports. Or mine has a pressure regulator in line maybe its set to low for your dock side water or it went bad.

Our F-36 Convertible has a pressure regulator added where the water line enters the cabin inside the cabinet at the port stern.

As WWG said, right where shore water enters.
I needed a less expensive hobby, so I bought a boat!
