Cockpit drain gate valve

Does anybody know the size of the gate valve and the thread type on the cockpit drain, through hull, gate valve on a 411. I have asked Nautor who will only send me a drawing at cost.

Dear John,

that's absolutely crazy from Nautor!!

Could you please send me a mail and the name of the person who offered to sell you a drawing instead of sending a straight (and polite) reply?

Looking forward to reading you, thanks a lot!

Fair winds!

The cockpit drain valves on our 411 Hierro are 2 inch BSP.
they are a standard pattern "gate valve". you should be able to obtain replacements in a suitable bronze for seawater use.

Paul, thanks on order. Matteo I asked for tis information last year so do not have a record of who. The new owner / mangers of Swan seem to have forgotten that 90% of owners in the past were repeat buyers.
