Hi - Yes we were launched May 10. Cold but all good. I can't find the raw water seacock. Shows as port side aft the engines ... but can't seem to find it.

It looks like that seacock was for an optional raw water washdown. If you don't have one you won't have that seacock.

If you're talking about the raw water washdown option, it was an option and you may not have it. Do you have a faucet beside the upper aft deck sink cabinet? It'll be close to the floor. Short of that, turn on your fresh water pump, and try all the faucets you can find on the upper and lower decks, bow, etc. if you don't get water out of one of them, it may be a raw water faucet. If you have the option, you should have a breaker for the pump on your 12 volt main panel. As Aaron mentioned, the seacock is usually behind the port engine close to the port stringer. You should be able to see it from the center engine hatch or remove the aft port corner hatch. If you have an access hatch in the wall of the aft cabin close to the floor towards the port side, in front of the bed, behind the port engine, you can get to the seacock and pump from there too.
