My Camper has Two Sewer Hookups

Doug S • April 23, 2025

My Sabre 36QBOK has a total of 5 waste water tanks and two sewer connections on the side of the camper. Cue scenes from RV … only now times TWO! Once I got down to business, it hasn’t been so bad. Here’s my setup.

From each of the sewer connections on the camper, I directly connect to a clear plastic elbow (kind of gross yes, but my dumping procedure has me flush with water until it’s just clear water running out and you can’t see that without a clear piece):

From the clear connection, I have hooked up my hoses. I carry two 20′ lengths and two 10′ lengths of hose. I actually wouldn’t mind carrying a pair of 5′ lengths to give me a little more flexibility:

I bring the hoses together using a wye (fancy talk for a “Y”). It has swiveling connectors which supposedly help (shrugs shoulders):

And that finally goes to my 90° adapter that connects to the site’s sewer connection. The one I have is nice because it twists and locks (if the site connection is threaded, of course). I bought mine as part of a “sewer kit” like this one:

About the only other thing that I’ve done was that I had to buy a sewer donut for some setups where the sewer connection isn’t threaded. You mash it in and then mash your hose/adapter through it. I’ve had nothing but bad luck with them, but they’re required some places.

When you live in an RV, every pound matters. Between fuel efficiency, tow weight, and storage capacity, we’re always looking for ways to lighten the load without sacrificing comfort. Our shower was one of those overlooked places—until now. We recently swapped out our bulky glass shower door for the Stoett Nautilus Shower Door , and the difference has been nothing short of amazing!

What’s the Difference?
By Doug S August 21, 2025
Lots of people end up looking at hybrid campers for a variety of reasons. Often times it is an individual coming from a pop-up who continues to want the canvas/tenting experience but wants the extra luxuries of a hard-sided trailer (bathroom, fridge that is at a natural height, etc.). Other times, it’s the prudent buyer […]

Over the last five weeks, I’ve had the joy of organizing and directing four completely different camps… each one unique, each one magical in its own way. This is the part of the year I look forward to all year long. During the rest of the year, I plan… I market… I research… I explore… and I promote these camps. I educate parents and prepare teens… but the camp itself is what I really live for. There’s something truly magical about being able to create and hold spaces for teens to show up as their authentic selves… to let go of the masks that protect them, that present a version of themselves they think the world wants to see… and instead just be who they really are. Watching this happen is incredible… and it happens so quickly.
