Grey waste.

Hi all, I'd really appreciate any advise. When I run the water in the sink in the bathroom it comes up through the shower, the shower backs up for a while then all of a sudden it all comes out the side. No idea where it's going or if it's being stored somewhere. Thanks in advance.

your shower sump pump is not working. Find it

lindastrachan - On my 270 there is a bilge under the after sleeping cabin.  In there is the shower sump and a regular bilge pump...both pumps pump water out the side of the boat.

I never paid much attention, but I'm pretty sure my bathroom sink drains directly out the side and not into the aft bilge.

Some boats have their gray water routed to a separate tank or the shower sump.  I think it's a regional thing.

the shower pump is kicking on and pumping over board. I'm surprised you cannot hear it, it's behind the stairs, under mattress, you will find an access door/plastic lid.

Yea you should hear it, when ours goes on it can be heard easily in the head.
