We just used our ice box for the first time and the melted water is not draining. The galley sink is draining properly and I cannot find any line from the ice box. There are 2 unmarked hoses that drain into the bilge and are located under the sole panel near the companionway ladder. Can anyone clarify the funtion of these 2 hoses and where is the icebox drain shutoff? Thanks.

The ice box drain on my C309 #136 drains into the bilge via a rubber hose that terminates in the bilge access in front of the engine. The bilge is quite shallow there and I had to reach in and pull the hose end over so that it was visible under the access hatch. I also have 2 drains for the hot and cold water lines in that hatch with shut off valves. Your C309 may have a different setup, as some owners have reported that their ice boxes were setup to drain into the shower sump in the head.
