Insta Trim trim tab hydraulic hose

[MRWood]

Does anyone know where to get (locally, Nanaimo/Parksville) hydraulic hose for Insta Trim Boat Leveler Co trim tabs. Had my hose crack and tab stopped working.

Harbour Chandler is going to bring some in for me. It's about $5/ft.

I have a couple of short lengths here. If you buy some get a couple feet extra and then buy a couple of barbed fittings so you can make a quick repair by cutting the bad section out and rejoining with the fittings and SS hose clamps. Will get you back own the water until you have time to replace the entire hose.

Thanks for the offer profisher but the hose should be in tomorrow. I think I have 5' coming so should have some extra myself.

So far have not had a lot of problems with the boat hydraulic systems (steering, trim tabs, independent kicker tilt), other than a steering seal replacement but I was told that if I ever do, that Industrial Fasteners in Victoria is a great place to get generic parts at very good prices.
