I know this has been asked here before, even by me...
but it's back on the To-Do list so I want to get information
and opinions again:

I'd like to install some kind of valve setup so that my raw-water
intake for my engine cooling can come from the sea-water
scoop or from a garden hose.

Why not just use a regular ball valve on the thru hull and then use an
inline T (in the section of hose between ball valve and strainer) for the
water spigot?
