[C320-list] seacock access

[Warren Updike]

Boy, I'd love to find a workable solution for this. Forespar does not have a
catalog product but can custom make a remote operated valve for $300-400. If
interested, contact Art Bandy, via the contact web page:
http://www.forespar.com/support/contactUs.shtml 

I was thinking of a mechanical solution such as an actuator cable that can
be manually operated without crawling under the bed. Perhaps a rotating
solution such that the cable can be attached to the handle with the axis of
the cable aligned with the axis of the valve. An issue would be the torque
necessary to turn the handle vs the specs of the cable. Teleflex cables are
used on our engines; but, that is a longitudinal force vs a rotating force.
Any thoughts?
