[C320-list] Bomar Hatches

[momvan at aol.com]

If I could find a contact for company  would inquire........I thought maybe mine was pulled out due to someone sitting on it or falling on it........interesting.

I have this problem. Mine about 40% 'out', but I have not been able to figure 
out how to get it back in. I've tried several things, but put so much pressure 
on it with no sign of movement that I backed off so I didn't break the hinge. I 
will wait until it comes all the way out and try to figure out the best 
solution--if you come across a way to fix, please post....thanks...

Rick, 
 

I just replaced the sanitation hoses on Silver Lining (hull 690) and the job 
went fairly easily, especially using the advice from Warren Updike that he gave 
as=2
0part of his larger holding tank project (see the upcoming August Mainsheet). 
 

After some research (try googling "head mistress peggy hall" or go here... 

http://forums.sbo.sailboatowners.com/forumdisplay.php?f=31), 

I chose the white Trident 102 hose going from the toilet to the tank (6') and 
the black Trident 101 hose for the rest (8') which included going up to the deck 
fitting. I also replaced the piece to the thruhull (be advised this is a smaller 
diameter on my boat, 1"). 

I did not change out the vent tube however, as it is difficult for me to access 
the back of the vent fitting without taking apart the medicine cabinet and the 
two vented loops therein. 
 

I was surprised to get a very good price on the hose from SailboatOwners.com, 
usually they are a more expensive vendor. 
 

Let me know back-channel if you want an advanced copy of the August article.
