Never run into it myself. Here in Maryland I just take'm to the local Ace
hardware. They are cheapest $/lb. I also had them filled in long island.
No problems.

On a CC 33 mkii, has anyone experienced salt (or lake) water filling up the

overflowing unless the sink plug was in or the drain cock closed. I suppose the
proper thing for a seaman to do would be to close the drain
Seems a common problem, I get this on my 35-3. My solution was to add a
ball valve just under the sink drain, easily accessible in the head. I
know the more seaman like solution is to shut off the seacock, but to
be honest I do not. If someone is using the sink in the head they open

2) Upgrade to a 35-1. It doesn't do this.

my 33mkII did the same before, and a friend with a 33 mkII suggested to had a
plastic valve right under the drain (white valve with red knob/ handle), found
in hardware store and Marine store. this is way more convenient to close than
the hard to reach under the port settee. easy to open and
Sounds bogus, I'd ask for a manager. But I don't have a costco
membership, I get mine filled down the road at ultimate home comfort (by
the self storage). I'm sure it costs more.

Thanks Dennis!
That is my thought too. I'm glad you presented it.
Get the sink closer to centreline.
Seems like a lot of newer design have that
common flaw. I wonder why the CC team didn't recognize it ... :)

BTW, it's not really siphoning into so
My 36 does this. My solution is to close the valve while underway, I wouldn't
rely on a check valve to prevent flooding. My Navy experience tells me they
are prone to failure.

I replaced my wire with 3/8th Yale Crystalline. I had to fiddle with the
winch to get it to self tail properly. The clutches worked fine. If you

Hello all. I brought my 10lb aluminum tank to Costco Halifax today for a
refill. The attendant did fill it but informed me that they are not supposed to
fill them any more because aluminum tanks are considered commercial and are
to be taxed accordingly which Costco is not set up to do at the
I give a big +1 for Gauhauer. Easy to work with and very good at quite
affordable prices. And if there is any issue, you can call them and talk to
Guido. They would try accommodating just about any request you might have.
E.g. they built a 3:1/6:1 mainsheet block for me, even though it wasn't
Same problem on my 35/3. I'll try a check valve or add an inline shutoff.
