I'm on the hard this weekend, replacing two seacocks.
One was for the manual bulge pump - it was stuck open and highlighted in the survey.
I was also glad to lift the boat because the heads holding tank was blocked, and there is no bypass. Not knowing the cause (seemingly calcification which had become dislodged and bound together with shit at the top of the pipe that drains the tank) I bought a second TruDesign seacock, and am replacing both.
Having removed the heads seacock, I threw it over the side of the boat for disposal - the fall must be 3m or 4m, and the seacock broke in two.
Is this the colour of dezincification, please?
