bought the wash down pump and found the prices for thru hull outrageous, how do I go from the cabin and have a fitting for the hose on deck?

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
THIS is the type of response that builds community, not those that lecture on how to search, due diligence, why washdowns don’t work on catamarans because they aren’t real sailbots, etc.

Again, James S, thank you.

Re: how wash down thru hull

I teed into the intake for the head under the sink where I also installed the pump. I ran output hose from the head to the transom where I cut a hole for the fitting. Works like a champ with a flexible collapsible hose.
