I didn’t need the traps and I had to cut the horizontal sections shorter as the double sinks are smaller than standard. All of the fittings were hand tightened on this system rather than chalked. It took me two hours to remove the original mess. And it took about ten minutes to install the new standard plumbing parts. All I could wonder is why a cost conscious boat builder would have constructed this drain!
