CnC Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 There have been several solutions to the dreaded fresh water tank drain valve location. I had not seen this DIY "fix" to the problem. Now it's easy to drain the tank when needed without lifting and straining to reach the valve in the bottom of the hull. By leaving the factory valve in place, it can be used if winter weather becomes worrisome.

Moderator+ ScubaRx Posted March 29, 2023 Moderator+ Share Posted March 29, 2023 I always just open the existing drain valve when we are 25 miles or so from home and let it go. Our valve is very easy to get to. 3 Steve, Tali and our dog Rocky plus our beloved Storm, Lucy, Maggie and Reacher (all waiting at the Rainbow Bridge) 2008 Legacy Elite I - Outlaw Oliver, Hull #026 | 2014 Legacy Elite II - Outlaw Oliver, Hull #050 | 2022 Silverado High Country 3500HD SRW Diesel 4x4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patriot Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 No issues with reaching my drain valve either, then again at 6’3 I have fairly long reach/arms. I usually open the valve at home and just water the yard.

Charlie 5 pillows…well I suppose that can be a challenge. 😁 Good for you to come up with a solution! 2020 OLEII - Hull #634 aka- “XPLOR” 2021 F350 6.7 liter Diesel Lariat Ultimate Tremor North Carolina 🇺🇸 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
