    Islander 26 Bait Tank

    Have not completed the install yet. Have had my hands full with doing the self bailing cockpit deck drains and thru hull scuppers...hoping to get the bait tank in this weekend. Will post pics of what I came up with.

    Deck drain hose & thru hull replacement

    West Marine did say the can order them - but its $175 a piece...Was hoping to find a better deal but might have to bite the bullet on this one.

    Scupper and Scupper Hose Replacement

    I ordered those as well. I figured while I am hacking away I might as well do the complete setup. Now in the process of deciding where to cut the hole for the access to the starboard side...

    See the below link for the Perko page with the thru hulls. Of course you cannot buy them there though.... https://www.perko.com/catalog/underwater_hardware/441/thru-hull_scupper_for_use_with_hose/

    Scupper and Scupper Hose Replacement

    Since mine will be submerged quite often I am going with the safe bet of bronze (and if we bump the dock!) . See the below link for the Perko page with the thru hulls. Of course you cannot buy them there though...

    Scupper and Scupper Hose Replacement

    I second this. I am currently going through this same process. I will be going with bronze since my boat is slip kept - but having a tough time sourcing them with a built in scupper. I know Perko makes them but cannot source them. Any help is appreciated.

    Deck drain hose & thru hull replacement

    Currently going through this process on my 1995 GW Islander. Wanted to get some input on what you guys went with for the new thru hulls. My boat will be kept in the water for 6 months of the year so I wanted to do bronze - I am having a tough time sourcing the 1.5" thru-hull with a built in...

    Islander 26 Bait Tank

    Our rear Aux tank is only 27 gallons so there is a large gap (2.5') between the forward and rear tank. Unfortunately the poly oval tanks do not have the capacity needed for the West Coast fishery. The tank also fills through the whole water column and drains from the top but within the body of...

    Islander 26 Bait Tank

    The tank drains from the bottom. The inlet and outlet are right next to each other. The lines will have to run down into the void between my front and rear fuel tanks. Just wondering where would be ok to core a hole for the discharge hose path.

    Islander 26 Bait Tank

    Thanks for the reply. The previous owner also had it on the transom but we were trying to avoid if possible. The tank we have is also a fiberglass and would not really work anywhere other than the deck due to its dimensions.

    Islander 26 Bait Tank

    I have a 1995 Islander 26 that I recently acquired a Blue Water oval bait tank for. I am now in the process of reinforcing the deck hatch it will sit on - but am having problems with the plumbing solution. The intake line should not be too much of an problem but trying to figure out a discharge...
