Re: Seized seacock

Re: Seized seacock
As a counterpoint to Tim¡¯s experience, I offer that it may take more than one afternoon. My galley sink drain seacock was a true PITA stuck in the closed position when I got my boat. I cut the hose

Re: 402 head/shower drains
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. Len Bertaux
