seacock/raw water filter

[bajo]

Please is it possible to get a 3/4 seacock and raw water filter combination ,smaller than the GROCO seacock/strainer combination as seen in the westmarine Cat..The area I want to place it, the space is very limited
thanks for your help.

Hull mounted Norfolk strainer from ASAP Supplies ? Actually screws onto a gate valve that is screwed onto a skin fitting

As an alternative, have you considered fitting a hose to the seacock and using a remote filter mounted high up? After re-engining my boat I fitted a hosetail to the seacock and a filter mounted above water level so it can be cleaned easily without shutting the seacock. Much easier. There are several filters available that are suitable.

Reference dickh answer. Vetus do one for about £20. I just had to replace mine after 20 years so they are very reliable.

I have an old gate valve strainer that I took off the boat.It's made of proper bronze and in good nick.You're welcome to it FOC but I don't think it's a good piece of design.
