Did it leverage any of the existing thru-hulls, where was the pump & sprayer/hose connection mounted? I noticed there is a blank space in the main DC panel labeled "Raw Water Washdown" (I think), which led me to believe there was a factory option?
I have fresh water at the stern on the SB side and another one in the anchor locker. I was thinking about installing a Jabsco 31911 quick-connect somewhere on the port side stern area (next to the bench seat) and installing a pump in the bilge area just below, and using one of the open accessory switches at the helm.
What I don't know is (a) how to use an existing thru-hull to access raw water (perhaps a tee on the pumpout thru-hull? or is that a bad idea?) and (b) how to properly wire the pump to power as well as a switch on the main DC panel as well as a contura switch at the helm.
Thoughts?
Thanks much!
Would it be possible to post a picture of each side of the anchor washdown - the supply side and the outlet. I want to see how the factory set this up. Thanks.
