There is no reason why a simple vent cannot be drilled into the hull way
above the waterline for this purpose. I did something similar to this for a
icebox pump on my last boat, using a standard hull vent fitting. Thru-hull
fittings below the waterline are not a good thing at all.

The idea was told to me by Seaward who manufacturers the heaters. They told
me that in newer more expensive boats there is a line with thru-hull fitting
for this purpose. I like the bottle idea: cheap and one less hole in the
hull.
