Hi

Does anyone know where the valve is that controls flow from the rear water 
tank to the pump in MK II hull?  The plumbing diagram in the handbook (which 
looks like a MK I drawing) shows it as being under the sink but I cannot see 
it there, despite disassembling the draws etc.  I can see the feed pipe from 
the tank coming into that area and lots of T fittings etc. but no control 
valve.  The run of pipe is hidden from near the stuffing box till under the 
sink as far as I can see.  The exit from the tank is a Whale fitting with no 
valve.

At the beginning of the season the Whale fitting leaked badly when I flushed 
out the antifreeze.  I was heading off traveling so the dealer had a part 
time staff member fix the problem, presumably that person shut the control 
valve.  The dealer does not know where it is and I may have to wait some 
time for him to pass by to try and find it.  Has anybody else any idea?  We 
currently have a full stern tank but are only drawing water from the bow 
tank.

Thanks
