Has any Hunter 46, 460 and 466 sailboat owners installed a duplex or stick-built dual fuel filter arrangement? If so, what model and where did you mount it?
Tell me about the remote oil filter cost difficulty in installWhile not stick built, our Filter Boss dual Racor 500 setup can be replicated pretty easily without the additional features of the filter boss. The filter boss guys mounted the two filters on the left and the black control unit/aux fuel filter to the right to make it easier to service filters and remove water from the clear bowls.
We mounted the dual racors to star board, mounted them on the bulkhead facing forward, moved the coolant tank down about 6" to make room.

Where to get those cool black woven hoses and red fittings. What is running thru them water or oilMost remote oil filter kits let you pick the thread of the replacement filter and have adapters for the thread on the engine side. The kits are ~$15 on eBay, but I spent about $70 for hoses and AN fittings. I prefer the AN fitting to barb and hose clamps
The kits also allow you to install oil temp or oil pressure sensors if the engine didn’t come with one. I added oil temp
