Default Trick Flushing Techniques While On Lift?

I don't have the built in flushing kit installed yet, but was thinking of maybe taking a hose with one of those two-hose splitters with dual shutoff's and connecting two sets of muffs. That way only once climbing down to hook up muffs both at the same time, and all I have to do is switch the flow from one hose to the other. Of course it would be connected to one feeder hose. Any thoughts, or other ideas to make flushing on the lift easier besides the Guardian Flush type setup?

Install a T in the supply line to the sea pump then attach a 2'-3' hose to an area that is easy to access. Install a female hose end or better yet a quick disconnect on the end of the hose. $5 and you you have your own flush kit. No need for shut off valves as long as the boat is raised high enough to get the outdrives out of the water.

Yeah I'm going to eventually do that, but for right now just looking for an easy way in the meantime while it hangs vice having to swap the hose to the other drive.
