My problem is the (very) gradual intrusion of water back into the tank cause the inlet seal isn't tight enough.

Good question. Don't know the answer. -- Gary, Santana 2023A, Milwaukee -- 3/17/08 2:00p.m.

Isn't the CB line aft of the water ballast tank (in the air chamber?) -- Todd-2023C-SFBay -- 3/17/08 2:18p.m.

I feel your pain, Todd (with just a hint of love)! -- Gary, Santana 2023A, Milwaukee -- 3/17/08 2:38p.m.

reasons for keeping valve closed. -- Paul Germain, 2023 C -- 3/17/08 2:04p.m.

Not a problem. Shut air valve creates a vacuum, preventing major loss. -- Gary, Santana 2023A, Milwaukee -- 3/17/08 2:20p.m.
