Shower drains into Black Water - Sun Voyager 8377

[dan596]

Purchased this 2005 Sun Voyager 8377 last fall. We haven't traveled anywhere with it yet aside from a few trips to dump tanks. We have spent a lot of time in the RV while parked at home just using it and getting things figured out for when we do start camping. So far things have gone really well with the RV ....yes this is given the usual minor repair, maintenance, and personal 'upgrades'. We are now getting ready to head out for our first trips but this one thing is bugging me.

The one annoying factor is that I have definitively concluded the shower drains into the black water tank. I can't imagine what possessed them to do this, but I want to know if others have encountered this and what they did about it if anything. I am very handy myself, but the idea of ripping into the project of re-plumbing the shower drain without knowing what to expect is not appealing at all.

Any advice or help, particularly if it is specific to the 8377 will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan
