Peggie, I just aquired my 1986 Hunter 25.5, and it has been setting in the marina for about a year,(with out use) (it was a divorce sale). I want to replace the fresh water lines (and pump) to the sink and vanity, and am not sure what to use. Polyethylene, polypropelene, etc. I think dark tubing would be better to minimize bacteria growth. What is the standard today? What would recomend? Thanks.

Unless they're leaking, I don't think

you need to replace the fresh water lines. Before you do that, recommission the entire fresh water system according to the directions in the "Fresh Water Maintenance" article in the HM forum reference library. I think you'll be amazed at the results.
