overboard discharge plumbing for Sealand Traveler head

Heyall, I have a self contained Sealand Traveler with the 9 gallon tank. Since I am converting a weekend warrior to a liveaboard, I would like to install a macerator and thru hull to allow push button drainage of the hollding tank, Before barging ahead and installing a perko bronze thru hull and jabsco macerator, I want to make sure I can plumb the outlet into the existing holding tank near the bottom of the thing without really creating too much trouble installing or down the road with any leakage problems. Im used to pushing one button to full er up and the other to grind er out on my motorboat, which was quite conventient and never stank

this project has been successfully completed, a johnson macerator goes from the 1.5" outlet to a one inch thru hull and drains the tank in less than a minute, with a simple pushbutton switch.

Move the valve Y to the exit side of the holding tank, the head discharges directly to the tank. Install the macerator pump in the overboard discharge line between the valve Y.
