Default Re: tubes for deck drains

I have 28 1/4" and the o-rings to fit. It's yours for the shipping cost. Don't be scared of the flaring part. Once it's annealed it bends really easy without cracking. It's too brittle otherwise. The more square and accurate you cut the ends, the better it looks finished. The second flange is a two person job.....one to hold/one to hammer (an old towing ball works nicely!), or sometimes your local Whaler shop will rent (or lend) the flaring tool. All this assumes the tubes are flanged on both ends and capturing the hull against both flanges.
