    Bow Rollers

    Sleeping Bags

    Rule 1100 bilge pump

    I recently purchased a rule 1100 bilge pump and now find that it has a 1 1/8" (28mm) Hose barb. My problem is what hose can I get that will fit this? The 25mm ID reinforced hose I have here will not stretch that far. Any suggestions?
