Ed, on the fresh water side, high quality automotive hoses are just
fine. But remember, they don't last forever, replace them every few
years and you'll never have a problem. On the raw water side, go with
the marine hose with the wire. The wire keeps the hose from colapsing
(not sure if I spelled that right, but you get the message) and the
heavy construction will help prevent the hose from failing, possibly
sinking your boat. And, like the fresh water side, these hoses don't
last forever, replace them about half as often as the fresh water
hoses (they do last longer).
