Is there a drain shut off valve in the freshwater sink in the 275 Freedom? Sink drains very slowly.

Boat is a new2me 2011 with the fresh water seat/sink.

The drain could very possibly be restricted by insect activity like mud daubers, spiders and such. Run something like a rigid fish-tape up the hose from the outside first and you may feel the restriction. If you can break it up then you may be able to flush it clean by using a garden hose forcing water through from the sink side. If you can access the drain line, check it for kinks.

Might need a long plumbers snake.

Just like at home, the drain hose is clogged. Remove the clog - any number of ways to do it.

 

[Fishtales]

Agree, but who knows how long that line is. A decent length snake can clear it pretty fast no matter where the restriction is.

Put a towel over the drain and then stick a garden hose into the thru hull from the outside. If an item fell down the drain, the water force should dislodge it. The towel is there to stop water sprau from making a mess in the cabin.
