so... we now own a Cal 34-III.
the PO said to always shut off the raw water intake valve when ever we arent going to be needing to use the engine for awhile.... why?
if its due to a possible flooding of the boat if something breaks, then what about the other open thru hulls that he didnt seem to think was a problem.. (kitchen sink and head sink valves, actually 2 valves side by side under the head sink)
I can see some sense in closing all of them, but not just one valve, in the name of safety..
