    I measured wrong and ordered a 1.5 inch bulk head when I should have ordered a 1". The physical hole is 1.75 " and I did not read it correctly.

    I also ordered a true 1.5 stand pipe from Durso, so now my problem is do I just order a new set of everything or do I buy a 1 inch bulkhead and a reducer to bring the 1.5 inch standpipe down to 1 inch?

    Also since Durso only ships FEDEX and the cost of shipping just bulk heads is high, what local stores would carry bulk heads?

    Bulkheads are usually sold at just about any boat supply place.
