Another random photo from the Maine Boat Builders Show. This caught my eye because I have battled a few corroded frozen seacocks in inaccessible places. When the frozen seacock wins you may be floating dangerously.
The Graylock Seacock System booth was manned by two young brothers from the Cranberry Isles. I spent some time with them and this is what Seth Gray told me, “The idea for the project came from my father, Ed Gray. He had the idea for years but just didn’t know how to put it into action. For my senior design class at Wentworth (in 2011) I chose to take his idea and make it practical. Out of that senior project came our first design, which has evolved since then into the display at the show. Years and years of working on the water and working on systems aboard boats led us to the conclusion that our system needed to be both rugged and simple.”
Check out their website and the installation in the Cranberry Isles Water Taxi.
