Operating a boat is both rewarding and thrilling - and a lot of work. Because they can be so much work, actually getting the opportunity to get that boat out on the water and enjoy the benefits of that hard work can feel like a great accomplishment. Other than just regular upkeep and maintenance, nowhere is more work required on a boat than in the engine compartment itself. But understanding the individual components and how and why they work can actually help alleviate boat owners of some of that work. Installing the right parts, made from better materials, can keep your motorboat operating at its peak for longer periods of time. 

Silicone hoses, meant for marine wet-exhaust applications, deliver a number of benefits that help with the high demands of a boat engine. With a longer life than black rubber hoses, silicone is resistant to wide temperature ranges, has excellent insulating properties for electrical elements and retains is flexibility in a variety of extreme environments. Not much breaks down silicone tubing and hoses very quickly. The material is highly resistant to moisture and steam, chemicals, pressure dust, chemicals, sunlight and aging. Boat owners find that silicone hoses are slow to harden or crack and effectively stand up to the harsh environment of a boat's engine compartment; making engine maintenance just a tad simpler.
