Ordinary automotive heater hose will work fine, and it will last about as
long as it does in a car, which is quite a while. Most of us don't drive
around in 30 year old cars, but we do sail around in 30 year old boats, so
the fact that the original hoses are getting tired shouldn't deter us from
using the same type as original hoses. Silicone hose is available from speed
shops, and the blue or green colour would look cool too, but at a price. It
has more heat and chemical resistance, but with slightly less mechanical
strength, so the tube walls are made thicker.

Subject: Stus-List Recirculating pump
Hi all,
The bearings were starting to go on my freshwater coolant recirculating
pump. I have a Yanmar 2GM20F. I decided to tackle the job myself and
yesterday I removed the old pump. While disconnecting the hoses, I noticed
that most of them also need replacing.
Can anyone tell me what type of hose should be used for this application?
Thanks,
Mike
