I like the idea of wire reinforced hose on through hulls, especiall cockpit drains that I never close.

Upon investigation, I found that there was a low spot in the criss-crossed drains. I am not sure whether they were originally installed with a low spot or they just sagged over the years. In any event, I removed the old hoses which were "type B fuel lines" reinforced with steel wire. (had to cut them off with recip saw) and installed sanitation type hoses double clamped with no low spots. So far, so good, they always allow the water to drain off, no ice.
