> Hello All, 
> I am new to posting on the list after having just taken delivery of a 1994 
> C320 "El Encanto" here in San Diego's Mission Bay. I look forward to being a

> implementing them. 
> The first that may be of interest to a few of you is my need to 
> "tabernackle" my mast. In order to navigate Mission Bay to my slip at 
> Mission Bay Yacht Club, it is necessary to travel under a bridge. The only 
> way to do this in the C320 is to hinge the mast at the step in order to 
> lower it while going under. It is a rather commonplace modification here at 
> my YC and the process may interest some of you, so I will take photos and 
> upload them with a narrative to the website as I proceed this coming month. 
> 
> The reason for this post, however is that I am interested in installing a 
> washdown pump with a hose bib to the anchor locker. I noticed photos on the 
> website but the narrative cannot be accessed presently and I cannot get a 
> feel from just looking at the photos as to where the pump install was 
> located and which intake through hull was used etc. 
> 
> If any of you with the earlier boats have any suggestions as to where the 
> optimum placement should be, I would be most appreciative.
