[C320-list] Thru hull hose inside diameter

The Inside Diameter of our thru-hull hoses are 5/8".  I'm pretty sure that the head thru-hull is the same as all the others.

....some fluid came out of it where the handle was supposed to be-not sure if it was seawater or holding tank....thankfully that had just been pumped. I was able to put the handle back in place with the plug and hold it in place with duct tape. 

Forespar sent me a new handle and machine screw thinking the handle broke. There was only a small screw holding the handle to the main body of the thru hull. The screw was in the body only about 3/16" so there was very little screw in the body, which made it easy to break the body. It may be worth checking other thru hulls to make sure there are appropriate machine screws instead of a short sheet metal screw holding the handle on.
