On a 78 Royale center kitchen center bath, with 2 waste water tanks. The dry shower appears to drain into the black water tank with the toilet and maybe bathroom sink (the waste water tank on the drivers side). The only reason I think this is that I don't see any pvc running to the gray water tank (on the pax side) from the shower while inspecting from the ground.
I thought the shower water was considered gray water? Yes? No?
Does only the kitchen sink water run to the gray water tank?
Thanks, Scott.

On a 1976 Royal (1 tank) drivers side kitchen and shower, the toilet is direct to tank and the kitchen sink and drivers side shower drain into the black/gray water tank.

On the late Royale coaches with galley, and shower on the same side
(drivers) with 2 tanks, Usually, the galley sink is the only thing plumbed
into the Grey water tank. The toilet, shower, and lavatory sink drain into
the black tank. I said USUALLY. They are 40 years old, been through several
owners, and STUFF HAPPENS.

Thanks Jim,
That's gotta be it, Makes sense. That's probably why the black water tank is so much bigger..

Now I don't feel so under-tanked. I would have guessed at least both
sinks would drain to the gray tank on those Royales.
One of the few things my POs did right-ish on my coach was install a
gray tank of sorts. Under the bed there was almost 20 gallons of 4" PVC
tubing that captured both sinks. Considering my black tank is only 20
gallons I figured that was a bit much and cut it down to 9 gallons by
excising many feet of tubing. There is a valve that allows me to flush
the black tank with the gray water.
Yup. I'm pretty thrilled that my little 230 has better plumbing than
those fancy Coachman-built rigs! :^)
