Thru Hull replacement Issue

You are going to have to cut an access hole. Mine has one on the back on the deck cause the hatch was a no go being a release well.

Polliwog is right about the plastic. My thru hulls underneath the boat were in bad shape and I just replaced them to all stainless and added a seacock valve to the live well pump that they didn’t install back then....peace of mind.

No kidding! What do you do; go under there and polish those? The chrome is gone on mine and down to the brass. I do have a timeline to replace them along with the valves however. 

O.P. before the cap goes on it is real easy to install that fitting, but do agree they should have used a more durable product. My Angler from factory 21 years ago did, that's why I am down to brass now.

Just did them two months ago but there not chrome, all stainless. I had the white plastic and they were beat.

On my list to do...do you remember where you sourced the thru hulls from?

Can you please post the through hull replacement part numbers and where you purchased them?  I have a 2002 Pathfinder 2200v that I want to retro fit the live well through hull drains with seacoks.  A broken drain hose almost cost me the boat!  One other thing, I'm a first time boat owner.  Can you tell me the best way to do the retrofit?  How do I remove the old hardware and the proper method to install the new hardware.
