I make a post in the morning and then wrestle with a 2" exhaust hose in the engine room and aft locker all day and I come home to all this great input on wash down pumps. I thought of a portable with a hose over the side but never considered cooler water deeper, cleaning up fish guts is a major plus also. Thank you all for your advice all I have to do now is finish my 47 projects and get back in the water.
