Jim,
If you have a breaker in the main electrical panel (in cabin next to stairs) marked Macerator, you have one from the factory. It took me a few days to figure it all out and get it working.
There should be a "Y" valve in the engine room . Mine is on starboard forward bulkhead. The sea cock is reached from the trunk/lazarette starboard side hatch.
Open the sea cock, flip the Y valve and turn on macerator breaker and all should work.
As it turns out our Tiara also came from Michigan a couple of months ago and also has always been a fresh water boat. We have aprox 470 hrs on both engines.

We have the same year and model and will pretty much be doing as you plan to do.
Although we haven't owned our Tiara long, I have pretty well been through most of the boat and systems and might be able to answer some questions for you.
Should you decide to come "north and east", be sure to stop our way.

Very happy with the boat, it's nicely setup with extensive Furuno VX2 electronics, satalite tv, Cockpit air and extensive camper isenglass. Located in Tampa area, and looking forward to cruises to the keys, the bahamas and maybe the great loop.
