I just did exactly this. Could not/did not access anything unreachable like outer drain plug and hoses. I followed the instructions in the manual otherwise. In some cases I was able to catch with a small bucket. In other cases I was able to feed right into running wet shop vac. The rest drained into bilge. I then wet shop vac'ed that. Hosed everything down afterwards and shop vac'ed that too. All into 5 gallon buckets with lids.
