RE: Replacing anchor locker drain pipe on Baba 30?

Ken The one on my Baba is made of clear plastic flexible tubing. It runs
from the chain locker through the bulkhead below the v berth. This would
come out forward of the mast support. I would check the calking around the
Samson post, anchor hawser pipe and the bolt that goes through the bow sprit
and bow stem (this is forward and high in the locker. You may want to make
sure it is not the chine plate leaking where it is going through the deck
near the bulkhead between the starboard berth and head.

Has anyone replaced the hose/pipe that drains water from the anchor
locker into the bilge? I'm wondering if mine is leaking into the upper
bilge.
Is this pipe rubber or PVC? It appears to be "built-in" and has either been
painted repeatedly over the years or is PVC. Any advice on replacing it?

When it rains hard, I have a small amount of water (less than a cup) that
seems to come from underneath this hose and the starboard side of the
hose where it runs along the upper bilge seems damp.
Just trying to track down and fix every little leak...

Thanks in advance,
