in water seacock removal Wish me luck!

Keep your tapered wooden bungs handy.

Good luck. Best video it so we can see what not to do. :-)

MB, love your optimism, lol.

Finished took me 6 hours! Toilet outlet Seacock was not operating internally since I brought the boat!

Your a brave man Southace

and i thought that i had a stressful day at work !!!!!!!!


gutsy effort SA

The sea cock was seized half shut and blocked! Although the the handle was still fully operational I suspected this since my toilet was backing up and a fishy smell.

Was not that bad once I got the Seacock off just put my hand over the leak and then plugged it. Went into town and replaced all. The biggest job was getting the tools onto the seacock for removal.

Had three bilge pumps to back me up if I had a problem!

Also forced me to go to Bunnings and buy a ubrute bosch Heat gun to heat the Seacock to assist with removal!

i will check all the Seacocks anf give them some preventative mantiance over the next few days!

That must of really hurt

$99 for the heat gun and was $124 for a s/s Seacock but realised after I paid that In fact I only needed the $34 dollar zink plated bronze aparently the handles are blue on the s/s and red on the zink! It's hard shopping with proscription sunglasses!

Well done.

The cut out with the jigsaw is like a love heart is something gathering for me After all that crap!

So you didn have to use the bat phone on the boat

I'm not she is if she is a honey or Not! Do u have a close up? Ho2
