The Seavette is @ Wildfire Marine

I hate to say it, but a 1" hose probably isn't much better than the ribbed 1-1/8" you had before.

The stuff that Will posted is what you want and the price is right. I ended up getting mine from west marine. Even with a port supply card it was expensive: http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs...001/146/145/11

Well I actually thought about that. It's going to have to work being as the engine is now in the boat and it would be a SOB to get to now. I wonder if the flex stuff is all that bad. It's been in the other boat for seven years now and still going strong, however it wasn't exposed to the sun or chafed with anything.
