Pearson 28-1 Portsmouth
Hello I just bought a new to me Pearson that is in great structural shape! But man the head area stinks and I've been told that the hoses are probably permeated. This is my first sailboat and I would like to tackle this task myself. How do I know which hoses to remove, and is there a procedure in general for removing these hoses? I just want to remove them for now to get rid of the stank. Thanks folks
