Bronze Thru-Hull Failure...(just about to happen)

I really have few words for what I found today that was keeping a 1 1/2" diameter hole of water pouring into my boat. One and three quarters of a turn of thread holding back the sea.


This is why I must touch and service everything that could possibly ruin my day, my life, my home.

"I" am................
my best insurance.

And damn cheap too!

  1. What was preventing the piece from threading all the way in?

    1. The thickness of the hull and the fact that the mushroom thru-hull could have been cut about 3/4" longer giving many more threads.

  2. Right on Ken. Got to have that peace of mind.
