Tx  Bruce.  This makes sense, I do get water coming up the drain when sailing 
briskly.  Probably makes more sense to just live with uncoiling and pumping 
occasionally. 
Lee replied that he repurposed his unneeded seawater footpump/faucet for this.  
Mine has only one.
Must be 33-2 variant week here on the list.  I wonder how many were factory 
options vs evolutionary?  (Like 2 water tanks, seawater in galley, drawers 
below berth,  etc....)
