Hi, I've been fiddling around with one of my seacocks. I've never

Anyhow it's
old and could use replacing, but I can't really afford that. So I
went to
replace the plastic tube that the sink drains down through into the
seacock
through the hull because it was old and nasty, and when I took the
tube off
the seacock water stared gushing up through it. I put the tube
back on and
the water filled the tube about 4-5 inches and then it stopped. So
it seems
that 4-5 inches of water is nessary to keep the through-hull from
letting
water in. Is this normal? Because if so it means that the little
metal
bands holding the drain tubes on to the seacocks are the only thing
preventing the boat from sinking, and that seems a little scary.

Thoughts?




You have a galley sink drain that drains below the water line through
a
seacock directly into the lake or ocean?

Unlikely.

I don't have a seacock. That's why I'm so shallow, and need to resort
to petty name calling. It makes me feel like a man, which I haven't
felt since my wife ran off, and I found out that I couldn't raise a
child without support from usenet.
