[C320-list] ANCHOR CHAIN WELL DRAIN

[Chris White]

 John -I did this job recently.As Bruce Heyman stated, you have to remove a number of fittings including the side trims and front shelf.It takes about an hour after you have cleared the front cabin of stuff.You can then see the pipe below the anchor well.It is worth replacing with re-inforced clear pipe.From memory it is 3/4" diameter.

 Awhile back, there was a case described where the anchor well drain hose, came loose/broke and the boat started to take on water. I do not currently have access to my boat, so can someone describe to me how I can check the hose? What is it, clamped on vinyl?
As I recall on my boat, water in the chain locker drains out a hole in the bottom of the locker and exits out a thru hull about a foot behind the chain locker drain hole.
