Transferring fresh water when dry camping
I’ve been transferring fresh water into our fresh tank while dry camping from 6 gallon water jugs using the onboard pump but it takes about 5 minutes for each jug. I set the Nautilus valves for fillin...

Maybe I am missing something, but when we are boondocking and I have to add water to the fresh tank, I lift up a six gallon jug of water and pour it into the fill port on the side of my trailer. We've been doing it that way for 16 years.
I should add that we use a big funnel in the fill port -- DW steadies the funnel while I pour the water.
It's great exercise, too! Biceps and legs and lots of other muscle groups get a nice workout.
This task is amusing in very cold or very windy or very rainy weather, and most amusing in cold windy rain. Snow is no problem -- it just slides right off.
Maybe I will look into a 12 volt pump, after all . . . . ;)
