Greetings from a very wet England (UK)

I am in the process of buying a 2005 Hunter Legend 36 and need some help with the sizes of the sea cocks please?

At the base of the companion way steps in the cabin floor are a number of seacocks which are not in good shape (they are weeping)

At survey I intend to change them (with the owners permission) to Marelon valves.

Problem is the boat is 4 hours drive away and I need to buy them before I go up there for the survey.

Could any kind person tell me the size of the through hole and the size of hose they connect to please? As well as the "depth" below the cabin floor I have available to the hull (to make sure the new valves wont be too tall)

Are there any other valves in the boat please ? and what size would they be please?

Many thanks

John

If you can get to the Hunter website, the thru hulls for the 356 were recalled several years ago due to a deficiency with the valves having blue handles. Hunter replaced them with a different brand, yellow handles. On the website there is a listing of the valves and the sizes for each model boat. I believe that it is in the manufacturer recall area.

Word of caution here. Since you live in the UK, you probably have a UK Hunter boat. Your seacocks might be different than US boats. You can always call Hunter technical support. They should have your model number on record with the equipment list that was put on your boat.

Below is from the recall notice. As Ms Emee indicates they may not be applicable to the UK Hunter boats. Recall notice can be found in the tech support section under product recall. May want to double check just to be sure the sizes are applicable to your model.

Standard Boat​
Engine Pick-up 3/4" 1 EA.
Galley Sink Drain 1.25 1 EA.
Aft Head Pick-up 3/4" 1 EA.
Aft Sink Drain 1" 1 EA.
Macerator 1" 1 EA.
Aft Shower Sump 3/4" 1 EA.​
