I've had a sink drain hose fail without warning. It was a cheap currugated
hose. A fair bit of Atlantic came in before we figured out what had
happened. A bad day that I don't ever want to repeat.

I see. Did it split on a bend, at the clamp, or just in a straight
run? Was it this sort of hose? :

cheers,

The hose was pretty similar to that stuff. Some hot water was put down a
galley sink drain and water started coming out of the cabinet under the
sink. It took a while to realize that it was seawater and that therefore
there was a lot more available than the gallon that had gone down the drain.
As I said, a bad day. I got religion.

Yup, and that religion has added up to 0.3% of the cost of owning that boat
over 25 years.
