    I don’t own a Royale so I am reluctant to answer your questions, but in general terms if the connection is a hose fitting it is probable it is your fresh water supply connection.

    The reason for both sides is for your convenience in case a water source is on the passenger side of the coach.

    I’ll take a shot at it.

    I have two caps/covers on the driver side. The fwd most one is for a Marinco type 50 amp shore cord plug in. The rear most one is for cable and phone connection.

    On the pass side, I only have one. It is another Marinco type 50 amp shore cord plug in.

    We never use any of these because we have an electric reel type shore cord in my driver side first bay and we have satellite tv and cell phones.

    Garden hose connectors?

    do you know if the coach has a macerator?

    He’s not asking about electrical. One could be macerator and the other water like Dick said. I had a 97 Royale, but don’t remember. Andrea?

    On my 99 Royale, my fresh water hose was on a spring loaded reel system.

    Not sure what the original poster is asking. A picture would be helpful.

    Could it be connections for the black and grey tank flush?

    Usually on a Royale the one on the drivers side is to fill the water tank for normal operation. The one on the passenger side is for bypassing the pump and supply water to the house system. This in case of a pump failure. One word of caution, the toilet will flush poorly using the “emergency” bypass connection.

    So today got to look under coach with it jacked and found two cooper tubes running across coach with no other connections to the coach.

    Further investigation found each end had a male connection. Puzzling how this was supposed to be used as each one has a male end on each end,

    Are you sure there isn’t a Tee in the middle that feeds the fresh water tank? Is there a cap on each end? Are there quarter-turn balls valve near the ends?

    sounds like a previous owner user mod, could be for anything, and no way to know what, maybe to connect to water on the off side of the coach.
