On the 38mkii we have to remember to shut the sink drains both in the head and the forward cabin, otherwise risk taking water when heeling.

The sink itself is well above the waterline while at rest. On a hard port tack, you may take some water into the sink. As for the shower, I believe the strainer and shower pump act as a one-way valve to keep water from backfilling the shower.?
Hope that answers your question. Do you have a 402? You might want to check your layout.?
Best,
