  1. OWNER - I own a Hatteras Yacht
Hatteras Model
53' MOTOR YACHT (1969 - 1988)
I made a boo boo. I didn't properly blow out the tubing going to the windshield washers when I put the boat away for the winter and the line froze. We splashed her this past weekend and I started commissioning the various systems. When I turned the water on I noticed some dripping coming from the ceiling right by the overhead console above the steering wheel. The split is above the ceiling liner and I really don't want to take the ceiling down for the repair at the moment. I don't really need the windshield washers as I'm in fresh water anyway, so I'm thinking to just disconnect the tubing at its source for now. The question is: From where is the tubing being fed, so I can disconnect it there?
For future reference, does anybody have any pics of an exposed ceiling showing the routing of that tubing so I can plan the eventual repair?
Thanks

This may be a stab in the dark but doesn't it show the feed for the windshield washers being in the STBD ER in the water schematic in the manual? I always start with the manual and those schematic drawings when tracing water issues like this - had 6 leaks this spring when I commissioned. Ugh!
