I would love to see how the one out side is connected to your sink drain. And how far did that water get you? How many days were you gone, did you use it all?

The fresh water under the sink is connected to a Rocket hand pump. The plastic tubing just slides over the fitting.i've been using it for five days and I haven't even used two gallons. I only use it for hand washing and coffee. The container is 7 gallons and I filled it with two 2 1/2 gallon store bought water (5 gal.).

I like it. Way to go, thinking "outside the box".

OOps.. Sorry, I'll make them appear again. When my FB page got hacked and pic stolen, I hid my public photos.

I think I just realized what you were asking about the drain connection. I left my original plumbing in my closet. I will try to take a pic tomorrow if we don't blow away tonight.

I like this solution...especially since it makes use of the existing hole in the side of the trailer skin. I was previously considering something like this, but might change my mind...

The above is a tent camper "sink drain". It acts as a pseudo trap at the sink. They do come in very handy...

It was just a "fluke" that it was the same size as the outside drain pipe. I even have the piece that fits into the sewer.. the ring like thing, forgive the technical term,that the hose will also screw into, rather than a container, but I have not done that... I'm afraid the smell might come back up through the drain. Still might try it one day.

The thread was a great find! The Goblin's sink also drains right outside from the sink, and I was at a loss what sort of coupling I needed.
