I'm a little late to the game with my response, but my 2004 215 DC Osprey Sport has a T fitting on the hoses to both fish lockers. (no diverter) and it works great.

Cool, thanks Skyliner.

Did it come from the factory like that or did you or PO remove the Y valve?  Also, what make/model pump is draining those fishwells?

Thanks Skyliner.  That is a cool name, what does it mean or reference, if I may be so bold ?

Happy to hear all went well what brand pump did you use.

DT,

sorry I didn't respond sooner.  The brand is a SureFlo macerator pump and the model ... well, I will have to write it down next time I'm on the boat.  It came from West Marine and was about $ 150 ish.  

I will get the model # to you in a week or so.  Merry Christmas, DT.

DT,

    That pump is a SHURflo model # 1936335, page 498 in the 2011 West Marine catalog.  I had to fabricate hose adapters onto the inlet side of the pump - actually both inlet and outlet, but he outlet was easy.

    On the inlet side I had to take the Dremmel to remove the threaded portion of the pump housing, then inserted two consecutively smaller plastic hose adapters, so that I could plug and clamp the plumbing back onto the pump.  

   As mentioned earlier, it all works famously !!

   OK, enjoy the Holidays, DT.... and enjoy that wicked cool boat of yours !  T.

Yes, the pump was stock. I just replaced it with the same unit: JABSCO Part #: 18590-2092

I do have a Y valve, but it's for the raw washdown/livewell.

skyliner is just a name I use online that I picked up from a book somewhere along the line. Sorry, no exciting backstory....yet.

Skyliner,
 
Thanks for the info.  So it came stock with a macerator pump, that is cool.  I had to upgrade, and am happy I did.  

As far as an exciting backstory for the name Skyliner, geez, that has so much potential.  We have all heard that famous Chinese expression "May you live in interesting times".   I can roll with that OK...

However, when I am flying on a friggin' Skyliner, be it 747, AirBus(t), Dreamliner (yea, baby), or AeroFlot(oh lord) all I want is to get from point A to point B without anything interesting happening.
