Default Fresh Water Supply

I purchased a 2000 Z244 Jubilee. It has a sink but I can't find where to fill the fresh water tank. It has a hose from the floor to the sink under the passenger side console but I can't seem to figure out how to put the fresh water in. I assume that there is a tank under the floor. Please help!

    Does the hose go thru the floor or is it just laying on the floor? Not sure on your boat, but on my sink it has a hose that connects to a portable "bag" of water like this:

    Almost all of the sinks (with the exception of the MCC cruisers) use a portable water "bag" like Csterner posted.

    The easiest way to check is if it doesn't have a stainless steel fill port mounted on the outside of the hull, then it won't have a holding tank.

    My 214 has a chrome fill port on the side, a elect pump behind the forward panel. The hose goes under the floor to the best I could see without tearing more apart a tank. I am not sure the gals. of the tank, have not checked. It seems to bee at least 5-10 by how long i have had the hose in, maybee more.

    I have a 98 jubilee 244. I also would like to know how the sink works. I have the collapsible bag like someone posted. I hooked it up but no water came out of the sink. Do I need a pump of some sort that is missing?

    I have a 98 jubilee as well and cannot get the water to pump to sink. How does it go from bag to faucet ?
