Question about fresh water tank fill on 3055-gctid807446

[Mlydy]

I'm pretty sure this is a dumb question but is there any other way to fill the fresh water tank on the 3055 besides the starboard port? I have moved to a new slip this year and I really don't want to have to spend time turning the boat around in the slip just to put water in. This has to be about the dumbest thing on this boat. I'd settle for being able to fill it from the inside of the boat if I had to. Before I go down the road of trying to find somebody to add a spot to fill it from the port side I figured I'd ask here first as you guys have consistently been extremely helpful. Thanks!

Should be able to reach it from your bow,

Or install a dock fresh water system.

Agreed. Bayliner missed the boat (think I made a funny there) with that location for water fill. I too struggle as I am port tied in my slip.

This topic has been covered a few times so a quick search should provide further info.

As Ruffryder said, it is accessible from the bow but is a total PITA.

Recent threads have spoke of adding a dock marina connection point but extreme care must be taken if you use this to fill the tank.

Do you fellas bow in or stern in?

[Mlydy]

Thanks all. Yes I should have done a search that was a rookie mistake on my part.

We generally go bow in as we have a better view and a little more privacy that way.

I had the same problem on my 2655 Ciera. I ran a new water line to the stern so now I can reach it easy regardless of what side I'm tied to.
