Bilge Pump Hose

So when I drilled the port side hole for my underwater lights, I drilled through the bilge pump discharge hose lol. I would like to cut out that section and see if I can get away with a 3 or 4 inch coupling piece of hose with some clamps. Does anyone know the diameter of the hose by chance? Forgot to measure it when I was there this weekend. Wondering where I can get a piece of tubing as well.

    It looks like a 1 1/8" inch hose. West Marine should have it. The pump that is on my boat is the Rule 27D pump. I just bought a new pump for my boat and that was the exact fit. One would think that the pump is the same, but you never know...

    Very true @Cableguy Greg. I will have to check out Home Depot or Lowes. Hopefully I can get a piece of rubber tubing that I can squeeze in there. Thanks for the info!

    @jme097...I made a post about suggesting the replacement of bilge hose for safety reasons on another thread (Ready To Go) It should have been posted here. It's time for a nap - see you later lol
