Just wondering if anyone has the same problem as I? I have copper tubing lines that lead out to the stern on both propane tank lockers. The problem I have is the connection on the lower tank fitting is slightly lower than the stern exit connection. Thus, water collects in the copper tube, and has the tendency to freeze/burst during the winter on several occasions. And of course water and snow is always melting into the locker. I keep these locker openings covered with plywood in the cockpit as much as possible so this helps a bit.
If your unaware of the burst line, and then motoring at 1/2 speed or more, water just gets sucked in from the Bay as the stern dips low.
So my repair has always been the two part epoxy stick, but its not always reliable. So, just wondering if anyone else has come up against this and how they have handled it.
Thanks
