Installed a SHURflo strainer many years ago on raw water inlet. Never a
problem. Easy screw off cup, clean screen screw back on. Just screw off and
drain cup when winterizing. No special mounting is just in line in hose.
Defender $37.

I installed Groco filters on my 34 and 42 Custom. Better than sucking a
plastic bag or weeds into your system.

Had my air conditioner intake plug a few times when in a slip in a
stagnant corner of a marina where trash accumulated. Things stuck in the
elbow on top of the thru hull. I have a tee with garden hose hookup and a
valve on the discharge so I can blow it out.
Contributory to the problem was it
Interesting discussion. The only time I have had my raw water intake plugged
was when I ran the engine in a grassy area while at anchor. In that case, the
grass plugged up the through hull and never got to the strainer. The admiral
dived down and cleared it by hand by pulling the weeds out.
Glen,
Touche' no longer has an Atomic 4 but below is a link to the raw water
strainer on Touche'. It's accessible from the starboard lazarette locker.
The strainer is a Perko. Mine has a short glass, not the standard length.
With a standard glass, it would be too tall.

Glen,
I installed a Groco strainer, mounted it low on the forward bulkhead in
the Lazarette under the starboard seat. Just screwed the mounting
fixture to the bulkhead and ran hoses from the thru hull to the strainer
and from the strainer to the raw water pump. //I used two 90-deg bronze
Glen - I had a bronze and glass strainer basket - maybe groco - on my 33-2. I sailed out of Whitby ON and the strainer did its job in shallow, weedy places like Frenchman’s bay and presquile bay. Glad I had it. Dave Sent from my iPhoneOn Apr 8, 2024, at 11:43 AM, Matthew Wolford via CnC-List
Couple of years ago, at winterization time, I unscrewed the cap on My
Engine Groco Filter and found a perfect little bass just through the input
laying on the screen! I couldn't believe he got pulled through that far!

I would be interested in the pictures as well. I have parts but haven't
pulled the trigger on creative A4 intake plumbing yet.

Hi Eddie,
I did it to my mark I within the last three years. Nearly 50 years without one
but I'm glad i did it. If I don't have any pictures I can take some next
weekend for you.
