In Response To: Question about overboard discharge valve "secured" ()
Our valve handles are secured with a wire tie. Our electric discharge pump was not secured in any way from being used. This has always satisfied the famous poop nazi keeping the stretch of ICW between Daytona and New Smyrna safe from any pollution that could compete with the golf courses and mansion lawns lining the waters.

- My sense if that if you had a wire tie on a diverter valve you'd be okay.
- I have a nylon tie wrap on the handle and have been checked twice...
- Heh. This whole business gives pause to wonder, if the key is in my pocket how is it better?
- I was inspected in Cape Cod Bay last fall.
- The only NDZ I have been to...
- If you find out for sure, let me know
