I am a new member and need some help please. My husband and I are complete novices and have just purchased a Buccaneer Caribbean 4 berth caravan 1998 - our first van. Unfortunately the hose connection for the waste water is missing and we have experienced great difficulty in getting the correct size. The original hose connection was made by Superpitch but they have long gone out of business. The size of the aperture is 3 inches or 7.5cm. Does anyone have any (sensible) suggestions. Many thanks in anticipation.

3" diameter hose is around £12 per metre with a minimum length of 5 meters - really surprised it is so big, normal waste hose size is about 20 or 28 millimeters

If it is 3" try a yacht chandlers

I think that 3inches is the size of a lot of motorhome waste water dump pipes, in which case I seem to recall that there is an adaptor available that will bring it down to a smaller size (can't remember what it is!)

Try Hyphose they are at least in the right county. There are some more places in Dorset on Yell.com
