What size seacock/thru hull?
Posted: Aug 15th, '17, 09:32
It's been a while since I cut a hole in my hull, but JohnV8r is inspiring me to cut!
I will have a live well and probably a raw water wash down pump. The live well pumps come with a second port to feed the wash down pump from a single seacock/thru hull pick up. My live well is small, so the pump has a 3/4" pipe size.
Should I use a 3/4" seacock or step up to a larger size? https://www.groco.net/products/valves-s ... fbv-valves
The seacock will be located in the old I/O compartment and up from the keel so as not to disturb the flow to the prop area. Can I use a simple thru hull or do I need a scoop? https://www.groco.net/products/fittings ... ries-scoop
Raw water strainer, or is this overkill? https://www.groco.net/products/raw-wate ... arg-series
thanks
