The ones I have seen have been mounted in the rear corners. This is on a 27. I am not sure if the 28 has the voids in the back or not. This is a Teague 900 rigged by Eliminator.

I looked at it on my boat yesterday and it's 1 1/4" push on water line. I am thiking of putting the strainers on the very back of the inside stringer next to the transom. If i put them there they will be underwater and will also be very easy to clean. I have seen at least one boat setup that way which I think was Adrenaline Junkies old 28 (pics). Anyone have any pics of this type of setup?

I am planning on getting (4) stainless marine 90 degree 1 1/4" to 1" NPT elbows and coupling them with the 5" teagues with the 90 degree mounts + the teague pressure valves and water dumps but i am hoping to get a pic or two before i pull the trigger....

My goal is to mount them in the red area against the stringers. Can anyone think of a reason NOT to put them there?

Dont see why not. Thats where my batteries are on my boat.

Nope...great spot....my trim pumps are where your red circles are, which is why I mounted mine on the stringers by the front motor mounts....

I mounted mine ( 25 daytona ) right up at the front of the engine bay so I don't have to reach way in to clean it out.

Here's a few pictures of where mine are mounted and one of my engine compartment. Hope this helps.

Here are mine...sorry they are not "direct" pics but you can see where they are.

I have a 30' Daytona and my sea strainers are mounted in the corners, behind the motors, center side of the stringer.

I finally got this done. Here is how it it turned out. There is no noticable pressure drop from before the install and no priming issues.......Thanks for all the pics! They helped alot!
