Of course, how you put that in when the boat is in the water is another issue...

Not really, although the west coast is quite abundant in kelp and sea weed.

        Listers,


        On a recent trip I found my sea strainer plugging up with sea
        weed very often. The good news is its doing its job. The bad
        news is it plugs up far too frequently.

        It seems to happen most frequently when entering or leaving
        various harbours here on the west coast.

        On 2 occassions I noticed the temperature gauge climbing well
        above its usual range between 170-180 F.

        Its now to the point where I check the strainer before leaving
        harbour which is a real pain.

        Last season after leaving Nanaimo harbour it was plugged so
        badly it starved the impellor pump to the point where the
        impellor and seals had to be replaced.

        My Beta 25 has less than 170 hours on it and it runs
        beautifully. Perhaps the issue is the strainer is too small or
        is an out dated model that can be upgraded?

        Does anybody have any ideas on what can be done? Perhaps a
        screen preventing sea weed from entering the pickup hose?

        Thank you.
