Is this something anyone's seen before? Something to do with the toilets. My old Hatt had Galley Maid toilets. It didn't have all this stuff..

OK so this is a stock installation for vacuflush?

(looks problematic for such an esteemed commode system)

The manufacturer or a dealer installs them. I don't know if it's stock or retrofit but if it works it's probably fine.

got it. thanks.

(I realized after I posted the question that they're probably a bit different for different installs)

I see a white PVC pipe that is part of the sea chest drain.

I agree with Sky, that is the sea chest for drains and bilge pumps output, should have one in the other engine room also. John

I agree with Sky and John however my sea chest was built into the hull and covered in fiberglass.
