[C320-list] Raw Water Intake Thru-Hull

[Irving Grunes]

It's a good thing there is not an outside strainer. 
There would be no way to clear it other than diving overboard.

Hello,
 
Are 320's supposed to have a mesh screen or strainer plate covering the raw
water intake thru-hull hole (attached to the hull)?  Mine does not.  I had
to clean my inline strainer twice while coming into the marina on Saturday
due to chewed up kelp.  I'm usually happy for any reason to stay out longer,
but it's tough to keep smilin' when the engine stops spittin'...
 
Thanks!
