RU saying you already have washdown for the aft area? If so why not T that and run another hose to the bow area and use that one pump?
I have a Hot and cold connection under my captains bench that was the feed for the washer and dryer that used to be on board.
It would be impossible to connect to that and feed it from the Aft to the Stern.

It doesn't have it any longer. It used to be in the closet in the master quarters. It was a little tiny stacker unit. The only way I knew it was my father was told of it's existance and also the breakers are still labeled for them... :D

Oh, yea, it did beautifully on saturday for out parties cruise at sunset.... It wa gorgeous weather.

I could defintely feel all the weigh of 24 people on the bow. We had to get people to sit on either side to balance us out. Everyone kept standing on the starbord side. It;s hard to pull out of the dock with the boat leaning like that.

There are no laws restricting riding on the bow that I’m aware of . You just have to use some common sense. Rough water or high speed are certainly times to be off the front deck. I personally never allow people to sit on the gunnels with their feet hanging over the side, but I don’t think that is even illegal.

That's weird.... but then again, mine has a seat up there and is made for it.
