I have a hose on the back of my zx225 2011 for the live well pump out. Finally got it to come out and now it's stuck out. It looks pretty stupid and is aggravating. As of now I am leaving it and putting it in the gap of the jackplate.
Anybody have a fix? Besides cut it off or spray it with lube while trying to push it back in. In the bilge area I see the hose but the one outside the boat looks like it goes inside the other hose
thanks!!

You are correct, The rubber hose does slide in and out of a larger LIVEWELL pump out. It's a bugger cause obviously you cannot grab hold from within rear of boat to pull back through. Mine did this to me also, I used silicon spray to get to start, working it in and out. One suggestion tho, you may need to disconnect the flow-rite quick connect system, then you may also need to then take black plastic fitting apart that the hose is coming out of? This way you will be able to access the two hoses so that you can get a better look, angle to attack, and to get plenty of spray within! Good luck

I also have one on these. Should there be 2? One on each pump out?
That hose is only on one side and its to fill weigh bags, most of the time if you don't use them a lot they swell up and won't come out or you can't get them back in.
Buddy has 12' ZX200 with same issues. We like to never got it back in. Will tell him about the silicone spray. Thx
