where to buy bronze thru-hull fittings?

[roozter2550]

I want to replace all my below water thru-hulls with bronze.

Problem is, I need 90deg fittings. I've only found plastic.

I'm looking for 1-1/2", 1", and 3/4" 90deg with barb end for hose.


My plastics are not broken but the boat is over 11yrs old and I'm willing to bet have never been looked at since installed new. I've owned the boat for about 1.5yrs.

Check out Hamilton Marine in Maine. The have some commercial grade stuff and cater somewhat to the commercial fishing fleet in that area. As I recall they sell thru hulls of various lengths. You could possibly get a short one (or cut off a longer one) and go with a 90 degree Ell and a hose barb.
