My head sink was getting worse and worse until it took 20 minutes to drain. I poured Clorox down it and now it works perfect again. Seems it killed all the algae and such that was growing in it.

The PO on my 35-3 put a gate? valve in the hose between the sink and the through hull. It is accessible via the lifting panel forward of the sink. Allows me to prevent sink fill-up on a starboard tack without accessing the through hull which is under the v berth cushions. -- Jonathan Indigo C&C 35III SOUTHPORT CT On Aug 6, 2014, at 14:08, Tim Goodyear via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com<mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com>> wrote: This is similar vintage to my 35-3, which has a drain straight down inside the 'vanity' to a through-hull valve. Make sure that valve is open to start with. There aren't any u-traps on my setup (you should be able to see under the sink), so you would probably be able to get a coat hanger or longer wire down to rod out any barnacles that may have set up home in there... Alternatively, close the through hull and check the hose to start with. We have to close the through hull when on a very heeled starboard tack otherwise the sink fills - that may be how the PO left it.

I just noticed that the sink in the head was backing up. The sink has not been used at all. What would cause this? What is the plumbing configuration and are there any diagrams available? Any help is greatly appreciated.
