Not sure what its function is but it looks ready to be replaced?

If the photo is 90 degrees off, that means the through-hull is in the side of the boat. Not unheard of, I suppose, for an engine's raw water intake, but not typical based on the ones I've seen thus far.
Our two sea strainers are connected into the boat's bonding system with heavy green wire.

If so, I'm mighty happy with my sea strainer.
H'mmm ... aren't you the same guy who just posted "I've been boating for a gazillion years in all kinds of vessels up to about 60 feet ..."?
So in all those gazillion years on such a range of vessels, you've never seen a sea stainer?
Looks like a troll to me ...

Looks the same as mine, without the salt and kooties. Mines laying down too, I haven't tried to clean it out yet, as I can see through the glass it's not clogged.

On my boat the sea strainers are all mounted so that the top of them is above the water line.
Actually all the boats I've owned were like that. The strainer top has always been above the waterline.
Is that a "standard", or is it just my boats?
You might consider moving that strainer.

Why is it a problem to have strainers below the WL?
