You can do a search on 'landamore seacocks' as mentioned in that article.

Steve,

 

That was my feeling on the discharge.  No, the seacock looks more like a
giant syringe.  You pull up on the T handle to open, push down to close.
I've looked on Google images and can't even find one similar.

I would think that a bilge pump discharge should always be above the water
line. Are you talking about tapered seacocks? Like this:

That site has other howto articles about seacocks. I imagine everything
anyone would need to know about them.

Thanks to you guys, my summer projects are done!  Its nice to see through my
hatches and lean against my life-lines without worrying about their
condition.

 

In the bow of my boat I have 2 seacocks that are a plunger type with a T
handle on a rod.  When closed they are flush with the bottom.  they passed
the survey, but I'm wondering how to service them and whether they should be
replaced with a traditional seacock.  Also, the discharge for my emergency
bilge pump is through one of the seacocks (along with the intake for the
head).  Shouldn't that be above the water line?
