1. Obtain a 5/16 - 3/8 in. (8-10 mm) I.D. hose approximately 15 ft (4.5 m) long. Put a metal
fitting or a weight on one end of the hose to keep that end of the hose below the water
line.

it in line with the engines exhaust elbow.

Ensure that this open end section of the hose is as vertical as possible from the boats
bilge to the top of the exhaust elbow

finger over the hose and lift open end until it is at the top of the exhaust elbow.
