I have owned my 1985 36" Open Tiara for 1 year now and I'm still trying to figure out the head dumping situation. I realize the y-valve needs to be in the open position but to reach it requires lifting the engine compartment and navigating over very hot engines. I've resorted to always leaving it in the open position (lazy) but of course it fills up with water twice as fast, can hardly make it thru a weekend raft-up. There must be an easier way....has anyone made an extension arm of some kind to better reach the valve? Or.......?
