I've never had a problem with mud clinging to the chain or anchor when retrieved on the Mississippi River I believe to current cleans it on the way up. While moving a boat on lakes Michigan & Huron we often brought up a mud ball mess. So I've decided to add a wash down system because of plans to do another trip to the lakes, or other areas where it would be useful. I'am thinking a manual system with short hose and nozzle stored in the on deck locker.
#1 can this pump be plumbed into a existing thru hull such as the A/C system or head?
#2 what type of pump, what brands and models, what psi & gallons per min?
#3 what type strainer? I have a 5/8" groco type in the dock box. The A/C pump has a strainer the heads do not.
#4 What do you have, how often do you use it and what are the pros and cons what would you do different on another install?
