Thanks Oliver!
I wish they would let me be a sponsor like I am on Cruisers Forum. Then I could plug myself!
This is just an opinion from looking at them but I think the older Forespar Marlon Seacocks were under built. The stem connecting the ball would twist off when the ball jammed.
They now make a much heavier design but only seem to market it to boat builders. I couldn't even find it on their website. It's their 93 Series. It is in their catalog marked OEM sales only.
When I previewed this post I saw that Capt Bill brought up the 93 series already.
For now, I'll stick with my bronze seacocks. They're 25 years old and work fine.
