flush

I recently pulled what appear to be the original bronze through-hulls for the head and galley in my E25. Given their pinkish appearance, I know I must replace these 35 year old pieces of hardware. I've read many of the debates on this forum (and on others) about the advantages and disadvantages...

In my head, the E32-200 has a compartment with a cover built into the countertop. I don't use it for anything since whatever is put in there gets wet. I guess its purpose is for disposal of used toilet paper, since you aren't supposed to put that down the head. It's big enough for 2-3 gallons...

Several issues. The hull to deck connection appears to simply be tabbed glass at the joint on the inside, without fasteners. Is this correct? The rub rails were screwed into the edge of the deck ply, inducing minor de lamination. A lot of crazing exists above the rub rail (picture). I'm...
