[C320-list] Connector/fitting for hot water hose to pipe

[David Wellerstein via C320-list]

Hi all! This is where a picture would be worth a million words but I’ll give it a go without…

On my 1994 C320 (#118) it looks like the fitting between the red striped hot water hose and the metal pipe that leads to the faucet has sprung a leak. It is gray in color and is different the cold water fitting. Does anyone know if it it is a quick connect or do you have the specs? Is this readily available at hardware stores or is it a marine specific (or even Catalina specific) part? I can see where the water is shooting out of a gap in the plastic so I assume it just needs to be replaced with a new part and some pipe tape.

The bottom of the fitting is white and round (not notched for a wrench). The rest is gray. The cold water line connector is white and again is different. Maybe it was replaced at some point?

Happy to try to provide more details or a picture if you send me your email.

Thank you as always!

David,
I have not yet replaced the water supply hose connection to the galley faucet.
I don't have a picture of this area.
I suspect a new Whale fitting might be the fix.

I did replace the connection to the vanity faucet.
15MM tube to threaded hose.
I sent a picture to your email.

I found the fix - 'Whale WX1532 Adaptor 1/2" threads to 15MM'. $11 Amazon Prime.
