Newer (2008 when new engine was installed) exhaust hose properly double clamped by Vince Balch, VB Engineering, Shelter Island, San Diego, CA. But the other two improperly clamped white plastic through hulls just had to go. The middle one just broke off with a light tug! Not cool.... Glad that happened at the slip!!
Bob at Brokaw Yacht Sales, San Diego, CA (on Shelter Island, a virtual boater's haven), referred me to Roger at Miramar Canvas also in San Diego. Thanks to Roger for making a wonderful bimini that not only does what we want to do (keep the sun off us considerably more), but it looks terrific too! Way to go Roger of Miramar Canvas!
Another new through hull installed. Less stuff to be concerned about when out in the ocean. Note the wood backing plate for the through hull. Nice work Lee of Brokaw Yacht Sales, Shelter Island, San Diego, CA!!!
Another view showing the middle and right transom through hulls that were formerly plastic with the middle (smaller) bilge pump through hull just falling off with a gentle tug...

Thanks master mechanic Lee, of Brokaw Yacht Sales for putting in these cockpit drain (the port drain is to the right) through hulls & bilge pump hose, emergency bilge pump hose & double clamped with new hoses!
More single clamp (below waterline!) through hull view...I would think it's safe to say that the insurance underwriters surely frown upon this stuff!
Improperly single clamped and pretty tired looking through hull between the speed & depth transducers...
