My wife and I just purchased our Ericson 28+ and we are in the process of fixing it up. This is our first sailboat. Seems like a lot of stuff to worry about, but I know we are going to love it.
I do have a question with regard to the drain in the anchor compartment. The previous owner must have stowed it away in the compartment with mud on it or something because now the compartments drain is clogged with a bunch of little rock and sand and stuff like that. I have tried digging it out, but I am fearful of cutting the hose or tubing that may lead out of the boat and into the water.
Is anyone familiar with the drain system of the anchor compartment, or is there a way I can unclog the drain without damaging the tubing or hose?
