My through hull fittings are under the cockpit floor next to the driveshaft.
That location concerns me because the valves are not readily accessable.
To check on their condition or to close them if necessary, one must first remove the screws that secure the cockpit floor.
Also, they are not proper seacocks but rather they are simple mushroom fittings screwed into glvanized 90 degree elbows that are screwed into the ball valves.
I have been considering installing proper seacocks in the hull at the forward end of the compartments under the cabin seating. That would enable to inspect and operate them from inside the cabin.
The other option I am considering is installing them on the transom. That would allow me to inspect and operate them from the cockpit.
Any thoughts on these, or other options?
