Outside sink drain

The outside kitchen sink drain on our 2017Sunset Trail 250 RB also drains to the ground. I was surprised to see that on our pre delivery walk around while picking up our new trailer last week. Sorry for the late report with this information.

So does mine, which does not concern me at all. I use the outside sink for washing up and cleaning up after I cook. I do run a small section of garden hose out and away from the campsite. I do not do the dishes outside. The last thing I want to worry about is filling up the gray tank that much faster with relatively clean water. If it was that much of a concern, then they should have a shower pan that deploys out and catches the shower water any time the outdoor shower is used.

This has been a hot topic on here before. I have the same setup and only use the sink to wash my hands. No different that using the shower on the back.

I looked at plumbing it to the grey tank, the shower drain is behind the kitchen wall. It looks like the sink and the drain line are the same height. Not sure it would drain or if the shower would back up up into the outside sink.

For now I carry a drain tank and hose.

I've never used my outside sink, I kind of wish it wasn't there.

If I do use it I'll just sit a bucket under the drain, I don't see it as a big deal.

You bring up a very valid point of not having the sink...I use it so little I would rather have just countertop space.

Sounds likes possible modification to get rid of sink and make more countertop space
