HoseCoil Side Mount Expandable Enclosure w/50 Hose Rubber Tip Nozzle

Enhance your boating experience with our Side Mount Expandable Enclosure, expertly designed to securely mount and store a 50′ hose on your vessel. Perfect for cockpit washdowns, this enclosure seamlessly integrates with your boat’s existing pressurized water system or raw water washdown pump, ensuring convenience and durability on every voyage.

Premium Construction for Marine Durability

Crafted from Gen3 acrylic-capped ABS material, this enclosure offers exceptional strength and UV resistance. The combination of acrylic and ABS ensures long-lasting performance, maintaining a high-gloss finish even in harsh marine environments. Manufactured in our Bend, Oregon warehouse using thermoforming techniques, each enclosure meets stringent quality standards for the ultimate boating accessory.

Superior HoseCoil Expandable Hose

The included 50′ expandable hose is engineered for both durability and flexibility. It compresses to one-third of its length for easy storage and features a double-layered rubber inner tube paired with a tough Dacron outer cover. Known for its resilience and elasticity, the Dacron outer provides a feel similar to a high-quality 3/4″ braided dock line, making it ideal for the demanding conditions of marine use.

Enhanced Usability with Rubber Tip Nozzle

Protect your boat’s surfaces from dings and scratches with the included rubber tip nozzle. The over-molded comfort grip ensures effortless handling, allowing you to perform quick and efficient washdowns without damaging your vessel.

Flexible Installation with Reconfigurable Shutoff Valve

Achieve a clean and versatile installation by mounting the enclosure through the bulkhead, connecting it directly to a designated washdown pump or your boat’s freshwater plumbing system below decks. The reconfigurable shutoff valve offers two convenient configurations:

• Direct connection to the washdown system
• Exit through the bottom of the enclosure for easy access to an external cockpit spigot

Note: A feeder hose for connecting the shutoff valve to the external spigot is not included. The shutoff valve is essential for:

1. Releasing water pressure to allow the hose to retract smoothly into the enclosure.
2. Providing a safe way to cut off water supply when not in use or when servicing the hose.

To remove or replace the hose, simply turn the shutoff knob and unscrew the hose from the fitting.

Secure and Stylish Mounting Hardware

Our enclosure comes with nickel chrome-plated 316 stainless steel tamperproof screws, ensuring secure installation while adding a sleek, long-lasting shine to your boat’s setup. These high-quality screws provide both security and aesthetic appeal, maintaining their finish against the corrosive marine environment.
