Seacock valves on 1988 23 Scepter

[JohnB]

All,
Thanks for the input, I replaced both seacocks today. The fittings thru the hull were heavy brass and looked ok to me. I also replace all the hoses and clamps, a bunch of wire, double checked everything and closed it up. I was suprised how clean the bilge and bottom areas of the boat where. I did the same thing on my center console, and it was a mess..... At least now I can reach thru the access plate and open and close the seacocks.
