1995 13' foot long drain tube replacement

The boat was kept in the water and the transom drain tube has corroded away where the lip is supposed to be. I dont want water entering into the wood core in that area. I looked at the tube and it looks like it is a foot long. I have never seen a foot long drain tube for sale. I dont even know how I would get it out. Antbody have any ideas on this one?

I think you will be amazed at what is there. You might also take a look at some of the articles as there are some pertaining to the brass thru hull drain tubes.

If they don't have it, or can't get it, then it most likely is no longer readily available. Talk to Sue Lodel at Twin Cities Marine. http://www.twincitiesmarine.com/arine.com/

Good luck and congrats on your new Whaler!! Cliff Cliff 1966 13' Sport with a 1993 40hp Yamaha 2 Smoker
