Don,
Many pumps are not self-priming and need to be "flooded suction", that is,
mounted below the waterline. You might be able to raise you strainers but
will possibly have to prime your pump by closing the thru-hull, filling the
strainer with water before closing the strainer snugly and then opening the
thru-hull before starting the pump.
Regards,
Randy Pickelmann
