Re: Aft seacocks Sabre 36 #Sabre36
To Joe¡¯s point, if the handle breaks, the tab on the cone valve (which is much more substantial) can be grabbed with a large adjustable wrench. Don¡¯t ask¡­. Don Fleming Duet S-38-1 #77 Hudson

Re: Aft seacocks Sabre 36 #Sabre36
I agree Jim. In fact I believe I¡¯ve owned at least 2 small keelboats where there was no valve at the cockpit drain thru hull. In such a situation the hoses are double clamped and can¡¯t come off

Re: Aft seacocks Sabre 36 #Sabre36
ABYC, reasonably, requires seacocks on all though hulls, but I'd bet it was because they didn't want to draw a line between required and optional.? I don't think there is any conceivable failure mode

Re: Aft seacocks Sabre 36 #Sabre36
I replaced the cockpit drain Spartan seacocks with Groco ball valves a few years ago on my 34. Took me the better part of the winter to do so (Spartans were frozen). Also replaced the drain hoses &

Re: Aft seacocks Sabre 36 #Sabre36
On my S36 it is not easy to get into the aft lazarettes but it is possible. I can reach all the stuff I store in there from the cockpit, so I empty it before climbing in. Port side has more clearance

Re: Aft seacocks Sabre 36 #Sabre36
Just for reference this is the location on the S36 vs 362, port and starboard firmly underwater. I¡¯m not sure what to say on the issue of access. ?They are angled and so getting a length of pipe

Re: Aft seacocks Sabre 36 #Sabre36
One the 362 one of the scupper drains is located above the designed waterline and the other just below. In practice with the boat loaded, both are below the waterline and just barely

Re: Aft seacocks Sabre 36 #Sabre36
If I am remembering my 362 correctly from many miles away, those outlet above the waterline. Dunno about older 36¡¯s

Re: Puck Light LED Replacement Lamps on S426
Thanks Allison. Had initially tried Amazon and did not find anything that looked like it would fit, but this morning with different search parameters possibly found one that may work. Time will

Check Renogy 200w "suitcase" potable unit. Includes the controller. On sale presently. I use a 100w version to keep everything topped up during the winter months while on the hard. Just lays open on

Re: Aft seacocks Sabre 36 #Sabre36
If they are anything like the S34-2, while I can dive in and access them, and I've been in there recently to service them, it's not easy and the boat might sink by the time I cleared everything out of

Re: Puck Light LED Replacement Lamps on S426
Franz are you talking about a tie color or an anchor light? I miss spoke earlier the one exterior light that is not Marine Beam is the tricolor. It is a Lunasea. It is a very nice design with a bird

Gary, my boat is a 1984 Sabre 32 with start and two house batteries. ?I chose the same set up and opted for the 20 amp controller vs the small unit that comes with the 100W Renogy package. ?I put

Re: Aft seacocks Sabre 36 #Sabre36
I haven't mapped them as you have, but the aft seacocks on my 362 seem to only be for draining the deck drains and the cockpit drains. What kind of situation are you concerned about that would require
