Big Foot 1988 Camper Sewer Tank Size?

[BruceWayneandTr]

We're planning to spend the winter in Quartzsite AZ - learned that our holding tank has to be 10 gallons. I have no idea the size and all my manuals and specs that were passed on to me when we bought this camper do not mention the size. Does anyone know if this model of Big Foot camper meets the requirements? Thanks so much for your help!!

You are welcome. Don't know if you need it, but my fresh water is 31 gal.

BruceWayneandTrishaJ, my Bigfoot gray tank is 20 gallons, and the black tank is 10 gallons. I did record when I measured.

BruceWayneandTrishaJ I apologize, I could not get to it today. I will make a greater effort in the AM.

LxWxH / 231 = gallons.

It's probably at least 10

I think I did write the tanks capacities down. I can check in the TC this evening. I thought I had it in my computer, but if I do I can't find it.

Thanks everyone for your helpful responses.

Wayne - I did mean the black water tank. We have two tanks as you mentioned. I looked at the chart on the door - it does not mention anything about the holding tanks or size. Bummer.

If you find out on your model - let me know. Thank you so much!

I too have a 1988 Bigfoot. Your post says "Sewer Tank Size". My Bigfoot has two tanks, gray and a black. Do you have two tanks?

I think there is a build sheet on the inside of the closet door with the tank sizes. Mine were hard to read.

I have measured my gray and black tanks several times, but do not remember for sure there size. Collectively, they were over 10 gallons. I think I recorded their size in the TC. I will look in the TC later today.

I can go for 4 days and nights, showering every night before I need to dump. My wife and I, 2 days and nights. The gray tank is the one that limits us.

I will add, I use a Macerator pump to dump. It offer more dump options.

x2 on making your own measurements as manufacturers can list nominal tank size, what has some reserve, then you might find couple more gallons capacity in piping.
10 gal for toilet goes long way BTW.

The simplest way to find out is fill each tank to full, then using a 5 gallon bucket drain it until its empty. Count the number of full buckets and you have your answer.
