Thanks for the 'heads-up' on the potential damage from oil..

The marina has only about 20 boats during the winter and they are, for the
most part, outboard run-abouts. Not much likelyhood of an errant bilge pump
dumping oily water overboard..



Outboard runabouts are always dumping oily water overboard if they are
classic 2 stroke engines.


That's why I said that the intake should be as deep as possible so the
surface scum can't get to it.
