[C320-list] Seacock question

[SV Osprey]

But that’s interesting. I didn’t realize you can change the parts out of a seacock without changing the through hull. Still I want to have the boat out of the water for sure!

>> If you aren't in the water, You can easily change the double hose top of the thruhull with a single hose version without needing to change the hull-attached base.4 machine screws on the top remove that.  Since you can't just buy the 93 series valve parts separately, you can simply buy a new valve assembly with the hose config you want and pop that on your existing body.This will leave you with your old valve/handle as a spare (which is a very good idea).Jeff Hare

It’s going to be done in stages so my first order of business is going to be disconnecting the head from the intake through hull. Should I cap the through hull off or can I leave 6” of hose connected and plug this off?  The seacock services another hose so I cant remove it now (not hauling the boat). Can anybody recommend a hose plug source or type of that is a safe choice? It 3/4” I believe. ElanSv Osprey1997 Catalina 320 #451
