I am am the new owner of a 2013 R-27. Having never trailered a boat this size, are all seacocks closed or open while trailering or does it really matter?

Thanks,
Ken
 
Doesn’t really matter. However, if you close at least the one for the AC you shouldn’t ever have an issue with it losing prime. That can be a bit of a pain when it happens, since AC pumps aren’t self priming.

If it were me, I would close them. It would keep any insects, especially mud daubers, from getting in and possibly clogging the passageways. I don't see any downside to keeping them closed. Cheers! -Norm
