Bruce,

Recommend you go with reinforced flexible tubing and clamps.  Had the same problem with my ’60.  Home Depot and Lowes both have the tubing.  If clamps bother you, double them up like they do on marine applications.  It is very easy to run, can be fished around tubs etc., and doesn’t have to be bent like copper.  Most of the tubing I have seen is clear with PSI ratings much higher than water pressures.

Good Luck!

Pete

Started a the simple project of installing a water filter under the sink in my 77 Argosy 26.  I cut the copper and was going to use a compression fitting to tie it back together.  looked like 1/2 inch.  1/2 inch fitting wouldn't fit so I went to 5/8.  It was too large.  Come to realize the water lines have been frozen in a former life but didn't break and that stretched the copper.  Went back just forward of the bath and the same situation.  Looks like I need to replumb.  Can someone tell me how the plumbing runs behind the tub.  I have tub on the left, toilet, sink, and closet on far right in this rear bath setup.  Any suggestions for making this job easier?  Thanks
