Should be getting mine back from the dealer this week with new dripless installed. What sold me is the "no messing with it" for 4 years or so. I'll let you know what/where they tie the water line into. Hoping it's not something I'll want to change...

My bilge is never bone dry for the same reasons mentioned above; the maintenance free (or close to it) part is what I like.

Question - does having the dripless add another step to winterizing - another line to disconnect?
