Hi Ken,
That is certainly an option, but I was thinking about simply blocking it off
because as of now, I have two batteries up under the forward bench.
Realistically, I won't pull out the batteries to open & close the seacock on
any regular basis, and if it or the hose ever fails, it will be nearly
impossible to get to. As it is, we don't use the sink anyway.
I don't like the idea of a seacock I can't access, yet I like using that area
for an extra house battery.
As far as I'm concerned, I'm OK with just letting it drain into the bilge and
putting a small sticker there to inform people not to use the sink for anything
other than washing hands or brushing teeth.
At least that's what I'm thinking for now,

Hi Bruce,
I'm pretty sure the forward sink won't drain very well, if at all, through the
thru hull the for galley sink drain. We tried something like that a few years
ago and it just air locked and wouldn't drain.
A Forespar Marelon replacement sea cock won't cost vey much, Why don't you
just have them replace it?

Hi Edd,
As it turns out, the quote on the damage to Astralis from the jetski is now
just over $21,000 not including the dinghy, and the boat won't get in for
repair until the 29th.
During that time, I want them to redo the bottom and pull the forward sink
seacock that is frozen and glass over it. I plan on just having the forward
sink drain into the bilge or tee it off to the galley sink drain. I will also
have them replace the cutlass bearing.
So, it might make sense to use that time to bring all the boards home and apply
lonseal if I like it.
Might as well try to kill as many birds at one time as possible. :(

I was thinking the same thing, Edd. Where did you get your sample?
