Re: Row Boat Motor Hose and Clamps

[PM T2]

I like to twist some wire to squeeze the hose tighter around the fitting, since the fittings don’t usually have barbs on them. I don’t use hose clamps. Unless I hafta. Or if somebody else put them on and I’m too lazy to take them off. Or the pump output pressure is so great that it needs hose clamps to keep the hose from being blown off. Or if I’m running the motor in Australia, since every thing needs clamps on it down there (opposite side planetary gravity forces at work). Hope this helps. Won’t lose any sleep if it doesn’t.

Best,
