I was wondering where this PVC pipe comes from or goes to that located in the cabin sump box area. I recently changed the sump box and noticed right after I filled the fresh water tank I was getting a slow but steady stream of water from this PVC pipe into the sump box area. I'm assuming I have a leak in the fresh water tank? Not sure how to access it if that's the case. Thanks for any insight.

That looks like a limber hole to drain a forward compartment. Look for the water source/leak in front of the pvc pipe.

I wanted to follow up on my findings. I located the fresh water tank in the mid stateroom under the back bench. The fitting to the sender has a hairline crack in it. I will seal it up and should be good. Thanks for the input.
