[C320-list] New 320 faucet

[Ray Durand]

I upgraded my 320 galley faucet today with what appears to be the same one 
now used on the MKII.

I checked out the Moen web site, and it looks like model 67315 is what 
Catalina is now using.  After searching the web, I found out that Lowes 
Hardware carried that model, so I went to the store to check it out.  They 
only had the model 87315, but it looked identical to what I had seen on the 
web and looks just like the one in the 320 galley photograph on our web 
site.  I purchased it for about $80.

I spent the afternoon on the project - most of the time was spent shopping 
for the faucet and the water hoses that I had to purchase.  After removing 
the drawers and cabinet below the sink (5 screws), I disconnected the two 
water feed hoses, and used a basin wrench (~$20) to remove the original 
faucet.  A pair of channel lock pliers probably would have worked too, but 
the basin wrench really made it easy.  Actual work time was probably only 
around an hour.

I bought two 12-inch water feed hoses with a 3/8 fitting on one side, and 
1/2 on the other.  The original hoses had 3/8 fittings on both ends - the 
new faucet has 1/2 inch fittings.

It looks and works great!
