Details on thruhull installation can be found in Nigel Calder's *Boatowner's
Mechanical and Electrical Manual* starting on page 677
and Don Casey's *This Old Boat* page 333.

Forn Constance #262, a non-liner boat, I've used Groco (
https://www.groco.net)
TH series (
https://www.groco.net/products/fittings/thru-hull-fittings/th-series)
thruhulls and
FBV series (
https://www.groco.net/products/valves-seacocks/flanged-valves/fbv-valves)
flanged ball valves.

Engine intake: 1/2"
Engine exhaust: 1-1/4"
Head intake: 3/4"
Head discharge: 1-1/4"
Galley intake: 1/2"
Galley discharge: 1"

Have not replaced the cockpit drains.
