[C320-list] Hot Water Pressure at a trickle

[bruceheyman]

 And Dick if my memory serves me right we bought the "extra" one from Wind Walker and it was our first rewarding upgrade to Somerset.  Still love it today.   The only thing that could make it better is some sort of knee valve.  It would allow you to get the temp you want with the Moen valve and then turn it on and off with your knee while washing dishes.Thanks!BruceSomerset - Los Angeles

 I replaced my Moen two handle faucet that came with wind walker a year 2000 boat with a new pull out sprayer as identical to the one that came out on the boat about 2005 and beyond it saves a lot of water not to have the two valves
