Very nice Wilson, let me know when you want to hook up on the valley since we can't do it on Hopatcong like we talked about. They are slamming Lakers there now with some nice Rainbows and Browns coming in

Let me know , anytime you want I am good to go. I saw your pics in the gallery at Round Valley a while ago ....it never ocurred to me with a 9.9 kicker yoiu can go out there even with the 150 hanging off the back. It would almost be worth getting one just to be able to get out there.

In the meantime if you need someone to help you wet a line let me know....

I bought the PVC check valves from Mcmaster Carr, they are for plumbing applications and not made specially for boats. They were a little over $10 a piece.

PVC Swing Check Valves
  • Maximum Pressure: 150 psi @ 73° F
  • Cracking Pressure: 0.1 psi
  • Temperature Range: 32° to 140° F
Full-flow design offers minimal resistance. Valves can be mounted horizontally or vertically (upward flow only). Body and disc are PVC; seat is EPDM rubber. Choose from clear or white. Please specify NPT female or socket-weld (not threaded) connections.
Pipe End-to- Cv Clear PVC White PVC Size End Lg. Factor Each Each

1" 4 9/16" 656274T74 $17.17 45275K34 $10.84


I wouldnt rush out to get them just yet because I am not sure if they are going to work . I cut the barb off the through hull and screwed them right to the through hull. Problem is because of the length of them and the fact that the through hull is mounted on a slight angle the inlet to the check valve is now at about the same height as the floor drain. As a result it is trapping water in the drain and it is not draining too quickly. I am going to relocate them in the middle of the hose section and see if I can get the height right. I'll let you know how it works out.

dont worry about the "sale ends today" We established its free shipping whenever you purchase.

changing them was a piece of cake at least on mine....the inside nut came off very easily and a few wacks with a hammer knocked the old ones right out. a little scraping inside the hole to clean it up and a light wet sand on the outside and the new ones were good to go in. The ss ones have two tabs in them that you will need a radiator spud wrench (see picture) so you can stop it from spinning when you tighten the inner nut. they probably have other tools for that but I happen to have one because I have cast iron radiators in my house which I changed the nipples on. you dont need to get them crazy tight anyway i dont think. the sealant is what holds them in place I think
