Peggie,

Thank you for the reply. The thru hull and access is below the water line. The only area where a run of hose was accessible and above the water line was in the hose coming from the bulkhead behind the toilet to the pump. I’m going to see how this works. The only change in this system is the inline strainer. If it doesn’t work, I guess I’ll find out after a few flushes. Lol.

As for depth of my vessel during most flushing evolutions; I’m in approximately 7 to 8 feet of water here at Solomons Island off the Chesapeake Bay. They’re saying the marine grass has bounced back which is great for the crabs, but probably a better reason than ever to use a strainer on a vessel.

Thank you for the input. If things go awry, I’ll be sure to post.

Alex
