John - Be very sure that the fitting will take 2 clamps; there may not be
sufficient room for 2 and if you put 2 on, over time the second clamp will
wear into the hose where there is no fitting underneath.  If there is
insufficient fitting for 2 clamps, you may want to see if you can find a
wider clamp.

Subject: [C320-list] 2 hose clamps

Yesterday when I was changing the oil and cleaning the saltwater strainer I
noticed that the hose from the through-hull to the strainer didn't have two
SS clamps holding the hoses. It was the only place on the boat that didn't.
I'm going to?add?the second?SS clamp today but I want to make sure there
wasn't any reason why there was only one clamp at that location. JOHN?
