In Response To: Leak (Keith Branton)

I'm pretty sure that my problem lies in the Anchor locker leak. My drain is not working to full potential. The drain itself is pretty small and appears to have a flow problem. I've tried cleaning it out a couple of times and once it took right off and had a good flow. Well of course I couldn't leave well enough alone and had to jab it again. You got it! The flow DECREASED considerably. I finally got it to drain better. It appears that when the anchor locker gets a substantial amount of water in it it drains down to the area in front of the holding tank and down the sides into the storage areas behind the settee seat backs. So! If it appears that if I seal up the anchor locker better and improve the drain I should keep the water at bay. Anyone got suggestions?? Thanks all!
