[C320-list] refrigerator drainage

Irv,
You're right that it's not a three position valve.  But before on this list we've uncovered that different boats that have this plumbed differently.  On my boat, the sink drain is dedicated and the head intake is shared with the output from the shower sump/fridge drain Y valve.

That is not a three position valve at the through hull. It is the drain for
the sink and the intake for the head.
Its open or closed.

That seems to make sense.  It does act like a 3 position but I've also
observed that it seems to open the seacock no matter which way it is turned
from the closed position.
