[C320-list] Small misplaced Shower Drain

[Robert Sloat]

The drain on Hull 894 (2002) is on the side of the shower sump so the elbow is attached to the side pointing down with the small pieces of PVC pipe holding it in the drain hole and reaching the bottom of the sump.

It was connected to the drain inlet using a small piece of PVC pipe with some tape around it to tightly fit into the drain inlet.  A small piece of PCV pipe was added to the elbow pointing down and ending just at the bottom of the sump.  This allows the sump to be emptied with little water remaining.
