      Have any of you replaced the 90 degree elbows under the galley sink?  While replacing the galley drain hose I exerted a slight amount of lateral pressure on one and it disintegrated.  The metal was heavily corroded and paper thin.  It's an odd coupling that I wasn't able to find similar to it in a plumbing supply shop.

      Anybody know the manufacturer of the sink?

      Chuck,

      I replaced all that below-sink plumbing on my boat some time ago. I may have kept the original drain pieces that set into the hole in the bottom of the sinks – not sure about that – but I definitely swapped the old metal 90° elbows for sturdy PVC replacements that have the same threaded screw caps that fit onto the drain pieces’ male threads. I’m pretty sure I used standard parts from Home Depot. (photo attached)

      Chuck – My sink had been re-plumbed by the PO with
      PVC, elbows, fittings, etc. Come over to CHARISMA today or tomorrow & take a look. I have be to work at WEST @ 1PM today and 09:00 tomorrow, but feel welcome to come aboard. Careful of the caprails & any brightwork – it still may be wet (sikens).
