Boat is looking great. Can you share just what kinda hose you had? I got some HD vacuum hose that is semi-below the waterline as livewell drains..No leaks just curious as to where what and why..

Got no idea Ridge what brand it was, it was factory used reinforced marine grade hoses in various diameters and lengths from HydraSport.
The guys replaced it with a very good quality and pricey current manufactured hose.
I saw the names on the boxes but don't remember now.

The mechanis said they see it sometimes where the hoses just start deteriorating, these were actually delaminating where the dry rot was happening. You would actually see the mesh inside reinforcement kind of corroded looking sticking through the dry rotted areas.
He said it could of been a bad run of hose from the original manufacturer.

Willy - that's a real nice boat you have. Compliments to you for doing it right - getting it done so you know it's all good now.

Thanks, much appreciated

Looking good Willy, Reel good....

Thanks Lance
