Old Boat Refit (Seacocks)
Why do so many folks that buy an old boat change out the seacocks first? (besides the fact that a bad one can sink the boat)

I mean if they are not leaking and are in tight etc

I have 6 thruhulls with seacocks on my 45 year old boat that are all closed. They don't leak...….at all.

The two for the cockpit have new (15 year old) hoses attached
