Coolant hose recommendations

[drburke]

I have used Aeroquip hoses for fuel and oil .

Be careful to meet ABYC standards. I was told that Hatteras used the thick high-pressure hoses for fuel specifically to meet marine burn-through requirements even though that actual application was low pressure.

I have been called out by a surveyor for using aircraft stuff on a boat.

You don't want to have a fire and *then* learn your equipment was illegal.

ps The same precaution can apply to LED nav lights. Some on the forum have substituted generic LED lamps, but the true USCG navigation lights are all certified for output and range.

For fuel hose I use Parker 221 FR . Relatively easy to make yourself with field attachable end fittings.
