Boat Hut Insight
When choosing a bilge pump plumbing kit, remember that hose flexibility and clamp quality are just as important as size compatibility.
A stiff or poor-quality hose can kink under the boat’s vibrations or tight bends, restricting water flow and reducing pump efficiency.
Stainless steel clamps offer long-term corrosion resistance, but make sure they are properly tightened—not overly tight, which can damage the hose cuff.
Also, consider the length of hose you really need; having a little extra can save you from awkward joins, but too much hose can cause unnecessary bends and potential blockages.
