Re: Wide Open
Let me try it.
www.flickr.com/photos/23993958@N02/2281666493/sizes/o/ This still is not correct. I think it is the program you are using. It seems like photo bucket is the only consistent one that works.

Re: Wide Open
Seacocks are designed for that purpose. They are much safer. Ball valves are not designed to replace a seacock. Do the research, ask a few surveyors, and look at some of the refurbished boat pics on this site.

Re: Wide Open
Thx Reel,
George at G&S said that`s the way to go, and I`d seen similar set ups here , but if that`s a better mousetrap, better mousetrap it shall be. Any other guidance is greatly appreciated. Now on to the tank......I`ve read lots of posts on this ,so I hope to get this right at the very least. Thx Sandy

Re: Wide Open
What exactly IS a seacock?
Perhaps a means of obstructing inflow? I think the tragedies you speak of are due to non marine ,non bronze,non U.L. NON MARINE rated,BRASS imposters:Box store crap! Just back from a local{FRIEND} /wholesaler and after casually perusing his books at great length , I cant seem to find a suitable seacock. Do you have a preference for brand/ ball valve / gate valve? Mine`s an Apollo. All seem to have a much smaller triangular footprint that is not compatible. You make a very valid point about household CRAP that has NO business in salt water.I took your advice and did a little digging. What did I find? A BOXSTORE ball that didn`t have ANYTHING LEFT OF IT AFTER 1 YR. WOWSY WOWSY WOO WOO. I thank you for thinking of me and others here! I have that kind of mind and thought of a glassed up backing plate from ply. I left myself @ 3/4"gap. Thoughts please. Thanks for all of us! I had the very same concerns as to "What If?".
