My boat has a really old engine sea water intake. On the water side
it looks like shower drain...you know the kind...round with lots of tiny
holes. Inside is a threaded steel pipe (yep, old boat) with a hose barb.
Nigel Calder has told me all about installing a new one, but not
a word about removing the old one. So, what do I do? A slege
hammer from the inside to drive out the old thru-hull comes to mind,
but I bet that's not the correct way.

On a related subject, say you have an old through hull that you don't
need anymore, 'ducer, water pick-up, etc.
What's the best way to fill it after removal? New through hull, just
in case you need one later, or repair the solid fiberglass?
Which would be toughest/longest lasting/cheapest?
Thanks
