hope you guys are not getting annoyed with my questions, but Im up most every night with this foot surgery and I cant sleep , so of course Im playing with the computer and getting some good info on my boat from my fellow Trojan brothers(that sounds a little weird but , anyway,,,,,,,)
I have a fitting on my starboard side for a hose hook up(female on boat) can someone tell me how I work that, is it for filling, or what? also where is my fresh water tank
thanks in advance

if its like on my f32 which is on the port side its the same type connector used on rv's. on the boat this is t'ed into the water line for using pressurized water from the dock. it is handy to have if you use the boat at dock as i do. keeps me from having to refill my water tank as often. however make sure that you never leave the water turned on to the boat and leave, i also make sure it is off when going to bed, if a hose breaks somewhere the water will just run and run and run, hopefully the bilge pumps would work but you never know. it is convient just keep this in mind. sorry cant help with the location of your tank but it should be easy enough to find by following the water lines.
