Run the Boat out of Water?

Recommended Posts

OK, I have always had I/O boats and this is my first inboard... Time to throw out the muffs. How do I run my 93 Skier out of the water? Is there a place to hook up a garden hose or something? I should get the service manual but have not had time. Any Tips?

You can also get an inline flush kit. They are nice all you have to do is hook the hose up to it. You can find that at any dealer in your area. They should have them.

I might get flamed for this but....

you can just take some coolant hose from an autoparts store, hook it to the inlet in your impeller housing, put the garden hose in the other end, and wrap the garden hose/coolant hose connection with duct tape and you're set.

Wouldn't it be better to use bailing wire Tongue.gif

Just remember to reinstall the intake line before your next launch! Been there done that, now I have a flush kit.

I believe it is best practice, if not some marine unwrtten, or written rule. To double all hose clamps at or below the waterline. So I would use 2 sets on the T.

Every other factory connection that goes to the lake is.
