recommendations on thru hulls, sea strainers?

I broke one of the seacocks on the starboard thru hull going to the sea strainer.
It was fun changing out the raw water pump with no cut off. Thank goodness for new bilge pumps.
So I guess that will be on my list of things to replace (the list is getting larger not smaller)
Any recommendations? I know a few have recommended the external strainers - is there any loss in performance with these extending into the water flow? Would you recommend totally replacing the thru hulls/strainers and seacocks on both? I guess they are 24 years old.
