section SS ball valves. Try this site. All the way from
NZ. Email:
hfulton@eclipsevalves.com Had to
get a plug in there guys. Too hard to resist. Also the valves have
side mounting screw holes. Regards, Hugh From:

Alec Hi
Vance, I've got
exactly that arrangement but am wanting larger bore valves. D'you have any idea
what that sort of valve George used is called? They're not regular ball valves,
they're a sort of ball valve in a hex shaped body that has a flat surface to
mate against the hull. I just don't know what these things are called to go
looking for them. thanks,

favorite goop--RTV. You take the handle and follower off and run the screws
through the hull along with the shaft. Let it set, snug it up, stick the handle
back on and you've got a done deal. Sounds awful, but it worked just fine
and cost a grand total of about a dollar two-ninety-eight, plus
valve. Vance -----Original
Message----- How is
the valve handle sealed at the point where it penetrates the hull ? I've seen
both configurations but couldn't see how the handle penetration is sealed.
