G23 factory flush kit install location help

[Scox082]

Hey first off great info on site I am happy to have it as a resource. Just upgraded to a 16’ g23 100hr fresh water only boat. I am in NJ and do most boating in rivers. Mainly fresh water but I want to flush engine every time to just be safe. My last boat was an 05 centurion raw water cooled that I flushed all the time and is still doing great. I picked up a factory flush kit already from nautiqe parts. Not much to it honestly for the price but it’s summer now and I have it so I’m sticking with it. I see it is basically inline T with one ball valve and a hose fitting. I would like to install as it would have been done if factory installed. I can’t seem to find locations anywhere. My question is where is the factory location for the hose fitting installed and ball valve location. I almost bought a coastal edition that I seen photos of his starboard locker that had the hose fitting mounted into the engine divider. Not sure if that was factory and I couldn’t see the ball valve. If anyone has any input on locations and general info on flushing procedure with new valve and the seacock for raw water thanks In advance.

I don't know where factory location is on G3, but you will want it in a place that you can access fairly easy to flush it. In my boat, it is located about 16" after the main water intake is located in bottom of hull (basically over the v-drive/trans). I have small access hole under my back seat so I open it and can put hose on easily to run engine at house (also very nice for winterizing). That main water line basically runs from the intake in hull to the impeller housing. Probably does not really matter exactly where you put it between, I would think about convenience so its not a PITA every time you wanna flush.
