Good morning,
Does anyone have a blocking diagram for a 480 or 500? We are getting hauled and I want to be able to see the keel as much as possible, so I asked the yard to put us as high as possible.

Comment from KYC support when we first lifted…
“Yes, the boat’s keels are load bearing, but please be very careful with it. If they drop the boat on the keels, they will not be able to withstand the impact. Also, the centre of gravity is more towards the aft of the keels, and especially with your solar arch, the boat might want to lean backwards.”

Hello
we now know that we have to replace the valve at the bottom of our fresh water tank because it is leaking. We have tried everything we know to do but no luck. We basically need to run a leader line from the side opening on the side of the tank, which is accessible from the top locker and end up fishing it out the very small valve on the very bottom accessible from the water locker, or the other way around. We used light wires, one from the top and another from the valve opening and tried to snag them. We were successful once but could not pull one through. There is a wall or fiberglass bulkhead dividing the tank but there is a semicircle hole we hoped to pull the line through. We have a snake camera but still can’t figure out if there is a better" snake" or a better way to do this task. We could place an access opening and plate near the valve but that means having a large hole on the bottom of the tank…Help!!! ( and thanks)

Looks like I am having a similar problem. Did you get anywhere fixing the leak ? I posted a question today and then came across your issue.
