I have been wanting to upgrade the Newfound Metals blue hose
connection to this newer curved one. It is much easier to plug in
and remove than our straight one.

December 2017 - Tied up in the
El Cid Marina Mazatlán, Mexico
We finally got these new blue fittings and now I am taking out the old
straight blue hose connection.
straight blue hose connection.
I am using electrical grease on the threads and seals. It is a nice all around grease.
Still greasing up😄
The old straight one.
I put a new hose washer in. These newer ones we got
are like "O" rings, or at least new to us😐
Screwing in new Newfound Metals blue hose connection!
Fits in the hand nicely.
As you can see the grip and angel are much better than the old straight ones.
Happy boy😁
I did not like having to struggle in the anchor locker connecting this and disconnecting this, It was hard on the hands even with a rag. The cockpit shower the same thing. Now it is smooth connecting!
