SW Skif Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 Hey guys, I want to change out this plastic thru hull fitting with a metal piece. Stainless, chrome or bronze? Has anyone here replaced it before? Where can I source the part? What size is it? This is for a '99 Pathfinder 2200v. Thank you in advance.

fin-addict Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 Stupid question, can you even get into that space to change it out. Very very tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBGNole Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 A little late on the response, but I just got done replacing this livewell drain on my 2001 PF 1900V. It was 1.5" and I went with a bronze through hull from Groco. I didn't like the fact that there was no valve to shut off in case of a hose failure, so I added a Groco flanged seacock as well. Installed it using one of Groco's backing plates. As Fin alluded to, the job was not any fun especially since I was working through the splashwell pie hole. But after some scrapes and bruises, I got it done and I feel a lot better with a bronze pipe and the seacock. I got everything from either Defender or Wholesale Marine online. The parts were: Groco 1.5" bronze Flanged Seacock Groco Backing Plate Groco 1.5" bronze through hull Groco 1.5" bronze 90 to connect the hose Trident 148 hose There are some good online tutorials on installing the seacock and the guys at Groco are very helpful via phone. Here is one of the online guides I found helpful: https://www.pbase.com/mainecruising/replacing_thruhulls . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
