Sink sea cock is under the settee just aft of the forward bulkhead. I have
batteries in my compartment but you may not. I also have a beckson port
(hand hole) which allows access through the floor of the compartment. You
may not have this port. It may just be a hole.
I had a spare see cock in my head from when the toilet used raw water. I
plumbed the existing shower drain pump (4gpm, 50 psi deck wash pump) to
suck from either the shower or the spare port and then discharge either
overboard or to the deck hose connection which I bedded in the deck
directly above the pump. The pump is in the little cubby behind the toilet
mounted to the forward bulkhead. Admittedly it is a little weird to have
to reach in the shower to start the deck pump. Obviously I could create a
parallel switching circuit if it became a big deal but since I already have
to rearrange a couple valves any way I can't see the point. I also took
the time to install and auxiliary suction which allows me to connect a
garden hose. Now I can dewater anything.

My 1990 C&C 37+ has a sink in the vee berth. I am unable to find the
seacock for that sink. Based upon the location of the thru-hull on the
outside of the boat, I would suspect it to be under the forward battery
box, which would be inaccessible and thus pretty stupid. I was hoping to
tap into that seacock for a wash down pump, but after failing to find the
seacock, it occurred to me that it would be really bad if the drain hose
failed an I couldn't find the seacock to close it. So my questions are:
1. Where is the vee berth sink seacock,
and
2. Where should I connect the salt water intake for the wash down pump.
TIA,
