Grey tank sizes

Anyone know where to look to see what size the grey tanks are? In the Manuel it just says 65 gallons but low and below there's 2 grey tanks?? Are they equally split?
2016 jayco eagle ht rsts 28.5

Cheers
Lark

Do you have 2 gray tank dump valves? If not, the 2 tanks are plumbed together and dump through one dump valve. Does that help?

Sometimes if you crawl under your rig, there will be a sticker on the tank with a model number. Should the be able to check the specs on the tank model.

You have two gray tanks on the 28.5 HT. We have a 2017 and it has two 32.5 gallon tanks with separate drain valves.

Not sure of the capacities. But am 100% certain my main grey tank is much larger than my outdoor kitchen grey tank. Lesson learned from the kids using the sink to fill water guns an not turning the faucet off lol. I'm going to guess that the outdoor kitchen tank is not over a 20 gal tank. That's on a 2015 eagle 314bhds

Oddly enough, on my outside kitchen sink, back by the sink plumbing is a sticker that says something like 'Sink drains to Black tank'.. Not that I care where it drains really, just found that odd.

My next door neighbour does a lot of dry camping so had an extra fresh water tank fitted. It would be easy to do that to a grey tank too really. Maybe thats what happened to yours if thats not a normal set up.
I looked up mine (2017 eagle 324bhts) on the jayco site and the manual and it says it has a 32.5 gal grey tank. What is weird to me is it has a seperate pull lever underneath for the rear kitchen suggesting it has some kind of storage too. Anyone else seen the underside to see if this is the case or does it just fill up the pipework until you pull the lever. Maybe its a direct connection to drain out as its probably only clear waste going down it?
I guess to really check your tank capacity you could fill the tank and get a bucket to drain it into. count the gallons as they empty

But I have the extra insulation package so I can't see my tanks without taking the covering down. So I really don't know what's under there
