Review on 🌊 SEAFLO Raw Cooling Water Intake Basket Strainer: Optimal Solution for Seawater Marine & Boat" by Samuel Nguyen

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Can take hoses from 1/2 " to 3/4 "

The good thing is you can cut one side down to 3/4" to accommodate the line coming from the Kingston and then the other side can shorten to 1/2" or 5/8" depending on what your seawater pump needs. On the other hand, these options make this filter large, so make sure you have room in the bilge for more than not only have a filter but also for smooth bending. in hoses with no kinks. Finally, the instructions say this filter should be installed above the waterline. I often assume that this is not the case. Although the instructions state it briefly I think it should be emphasized that silicone grease MUST be applied to the o-ring during installation and each time the filter is cleaned to ensure the seal is tight.

Pros
  • Some competitors
Cons
  • are unreliable
