So what are you thinking?

BR, I gonna run mine back to the bilge...it really shouldn't be LOTS of water and whatever gets back there won't hurt anything...those bearing cups are $2.29/pr at Wally Market and the plastic thru-hulls came from Bass Pro for about the same for each...that flexible white bilge hose is cheap as crap and I bet you got some hose clamps already...
