Bigfoot tank holding numbers

I was in Mexico and did not have the numbers with me when someone wanted to know the size of holding tanks, I don't remember the thread.

For the 91 Bigfoot 17 foot these are the numbers.

Fresh water 87 litres ( 23.0 US gal. )
Grey water 64 litres ( 16.9 US gal. )
Black water 32 litres ( 8.5 US gal. )

Optional fresh water tank 116 litres ( US gal. 30.6 )

Mine has the 30.6 fresh water tank.

Thanks for the #'s, I had asked. I am surprised at the size if the black tanks but learned a lot of good options from some of the replies I received when asking the question. So to my knowledge the 90's had 8.5 gallon black tanks, early 2000's had 7 gal tanks and then in 2005 they went to 20 gallon. If anyone sees I am wrong with any of this please correct me for my own knowledge in shopping for a Bigfoot 17. Thanks

You must match freshwater tank to gray water and black water tanks. You don't want to have more freshwater available than what the disposal tanks can hold... unless you've already figured out a method to remove that "sewer" water. You'll note the numbers Daniel has provided. Just a tad less than equal.

So true Donna my optional tank gives me enough fresh water for coffee and drinking water without overloading the disposal.
