Well ive had a variety of opinions. Jayco say ive an 80 l tank members say 90l as do the measurements. After numerous fills, we only get 72 l out of it. We have force fed the water so its coming streaming from both breather and filler them put a stopper in. Whats other members getting out of them?

Interesting question. Can't say that I have ever tried to measure it.

@Axl I bet if you did you would be disappointed.Not an issue when in commercial parks..but when freecamping and you are monitoring you use then it can become one.

Very interesting, ever since I stared researching Jayco's looking to buy one everything that has had a water tank on board wether it be an Expanda, Swan, Discovery, StarCraft, Base station etc etc has listed the tank capacity at 83lts.

Good pick up @Dingo193, gotta love this forum you learn something new every day.....
