Default Where is the fresh water tank drain plug???

Good day,

Last night I wanted to empty the fresh water tank of our "New to us" 2008 Gulf Breeze 26RKS. The only one I saw was located behind the wheels - curb side - almost near the centre of the trailer! I had to crawl under the trailer to remove the screw-on cap. Then crawl back (on wet, dirty pavement) to put the cap back on.

I purchased the trailer from a non-Gulf Stream dealership. Of course, no owner manual was in the camper. (That will be subject of another topic/question, in the general questions forum).

Is there any other drain for the fresh water tank?

Thanks for your help.

Marc

The valve on the tank had a short length of clear plastic hose attached that dropped through a hole in the floor to drain the tank. I attached an plastic elbow with a hose connect to the hose just under the floor. I glued a short length of 1/2 inch plastic pipe ( about 2 feet long to reach the outside bottom edge of the trailer) to the elbow. I attached a plastic hose bib to the end of the plastic pipe. I secured the pipe to the bottom of the trim along the bottom of the trailer with a pipe clamp. I keep the valve on the water tank open. To drain the tank I just open the hose bib on the outer edge of the trailer. I hope that explains it. Sorry it took so long to respond.
