Hi Adam,
I think new valves and new hoses, clamps, etc, are in order. There are a few
choices.
I like Forespar Marelon thruhulls. No metal to corrode.

Hi Chuck,
I Typically close all seacocks before leaving the boat for the week. For
me, it's a simple all or nothing deal and I have a placard (3 X 5 sheet of
paper :-) ) I put on the sink cover (1st thing you see coming in the
cabin) that says "All seacocks shut".
Since I do it almost every

Curtis,
Cycling the seacocks is a great practice. I hope you misspoke when you
said you have seacocks on your cockpit drains closed. Maybe I
misunderstand but if the drains are closed where does the water go when it

I'm keeping my boat 2 1/2 hrs from home and closing seacocks more than I used

for the week. Got any tips or maybe a checklist?

Mark,
I'm surprised that your temperature alarm didn't eventually go off at some
point in your adventure. Maybe something to check if you didn't get the alarm.
You should probably check that the water pump impellor

"I do have to close to seacock to the sink in the head when the wind is up."
Me too, quite a lot of water gets in when the rail is going under if I forget.
