I am getting rid of my captains call and need to put in place the wet hose but i am unsure of what kind to get for a length of 17.5" on each side from riser to tips... whats your input on this? the salesman said soft would do, but i really dont want any sagging going on. He also said soft would be easier to install, wouldnt have to remove the riser unlike using the hard hose.

Reason for getting rid of captains call is that i never ever use it, always just keep on loud setting and a buddy of mine would buy it off me for 1k.

i use soft on my Scarab and no probs with sagging or any sort of deforming. Get the good marine grade with the wire in it and you'll be fine.

I thought the softwall doesnt have any wire in it.... just the hardwall has it?

Doing the same on a 38 Fountain, using Shields 200 Series, which is soft wall. I prefer Shields over MPI hose.

I did my old Carrera with the soft hose and also had no problems.
