[Public-List] seacocks

[Rachel]

I recently replaced all the sea valves in my boat with new backing 
blocks, new through-hulls, new seacocks, new tailpieces, new hose, and 
new clamps. Whew! :D

It's a bit of work, but not that bad, really.  MUCH easier, than, say, 
painting a deck or some such. In my opinion.

Mine were all original but one.  They were in good shape, metal-wise, 
due to the boat's "easy" life in a short-season freshwater locale, but 
nevertheless, there were some really scary "oh my gosh I can't believe 
this didn't sink" facets to them.

Not to insinuate that it's rocket science, but if I can provide any 
information, I'm happy to.  I did a fair bit of research on the various 
seacocks available before I started the job.
