The pain, the pain.............

I get how some of this stuff happens. Sailboaters want to go sailing. Most aren't crazy like me and like these little details correct.

Today I am cleaning up engine plumbing. Correct size hose on the correct size fitting with the correct size clamp. I know this seems a little retentive, but I have to believe that hoses coming off underway is also a bad thing. 5/8" hose does not belong on 1/2" fittings no matter how tight the oversized clamp is.
