Here’s one for the Mainship brain trust....
In preparation for winterizing, I was able to completely drain the starboard water tank. However, the crossover that runs between the port and starboard water tanks doesn’t seem to allow the port tank to completely empty. Thus, I left about 5” of water in the starboard water tank over the winter. My boat was kept in the water on Mobjack Bay, so I only purged the fresh water lines rather than a full winterization.
I’m getting ready to fill up the tanks and wondering how and if it’s a good idea to somehow get the rest of the water out of the port side water tank before filling up with water. Any suggestions?
BTW, the Fly Bridge and cockpit fiberglass repairs are finished and came out great. The technicians at Severn Yacht Center did a fantastic job. I plan to post pictures on the old thread soon.
