Hi
I am thinking of installing a fresh water wash down on deck, plumbed to the
fresh water pump.
My reasoning is as follows:
- I am installing a watermaker and hope to have an adequate supply of fresh
water. I am not putting in a really high output watermaker though.
- I want to give the lower rigging a rinse now and then to keep the rusties
at bay. I'd also like to rinse the windlass off too. Salt water seems like a
bad idea for such tasks. I'm not talking about daily here, but after
passages or maybe once a week.
- I am trying to avoid cutting another thru hull into the boat.
I would like to solicite opinions from those who have more experience
though. Is putting in a fresh water washdown and bad idea?
Jeff
