I'm a lake boater, and have always wanted a fresh water wash-down pump. How does that setup work? I know I'll need a pump, wiring and hoses, but I want to just pull lake water from a pickup. Where does that typically mount. Underwater how are they configured, etc. I would probably attach a pickup screen to a pipe then attach the pipe to the engine bracket or something else. But I would be reluctant to drill into the pontoon itself. Select a pump rated for washdown duty, hopefully with an automatic pressure switch. It's on a pontoon, anyone with experience? sorry, no. I think I would make some kind of permanant, but external drop down style pump... Could be as simple as a small loop that holds the hose up under the deck someplace, easy to drop down and feed the pump... That could work too. |
