Yeah. Got a little snow blind looking for the finish line and didn't let common sense get in my way. I bought a book on marine electrical systems a while back and I'm doing all my wiring according to ABYC standards, but didn't think to get the book on mechanical/plumbing systems. Go figure.

I've got a couple good reference books now and will review some stuff to make sure I haven't built in any problems. According to what I've read so far, PVC is ok for use below the waterline in some boat plumbing systems, but engine raw water wasn't mentioned.
