G'day all,
My boats use the common pressurised pump systme with a two way pump forcing water into a tank and then pinching the line. Sheerline/ OTW style.
for some time I've known about valves that you can buy that will allow the water to go in both directions and you can simply use a servo to open or release the valve. No side load on the servo arm and not rubbing against tube.
Problem is I run small boats and these valves are really big. like way bigger than my WTC.
I was perusing an old Subcommitee mag, Issue 62 Sept 2005. ( My boats on the front cover plug, plug!) and I was looking at the article by Roger Suitter on "The lacing Technique". On page 45 is a picture ( figure 11) of the same set up as my boat but with a very small equivalent valve to what I'm looking for.
Roger, If your out there can you contact me or any one who knows something about this small valve. It looks perfect. Tiny and a neat set up.
where would I get one?
Regards
