I want flush mounted flanges, the only wsrning I got with Marlon was to use them in a space that hsd no movement to where they could be damaged. Any other flush mounted seacocks?

The through hulls can be flush (mushroom) or recessed into the hull (like most cals); depends on how you buy them. Cals used a recessed profile that is not easily found, so you will have to re-form the hull depression to use a modern recessed t-hull.
