I have a problem driving me nuts. The reefer drain on our boat is completely
clogged; it makes a horrible mess when a few bags of ice melt in it and we need
to bail the thing out, meanwhile food sits in standing water and labels soak
off all the beers. I've tried 3 different snakes and even liquid plumber.
Nothing works. Problem is, I've found this to be the only inaccessible part of
the boat. The plumbing for the drain is all contained totally enclosed. the
plumbing exits through a very small hole in the bulkhead under the sink where
it drains into the bilge. Anyway I can get to this without cutting a hole the
bulkhead? Does the drain screw into the bottom of the reefer, anyway I can get
it out that way? Anyone else ever removed or replaced this plumbing? My last
resort is considering routing a hole in the counter beneath the reefer, next to
the stove and putting in a large inspection port after fixing it, but it's not
a very
aesthetically pleasing option to me. After trying snakes and chemical options
I've pretty much given up on clearing the clog without taking it apart. It's
never drained since I bought the boat, so for all I know someone poured epoxy
down it, it certainly isn't your normal clog.
