Has anyone fitted a washdown pump on their 358?

I'd like to wash the boat while at anchor, but tired of lugging a bucket back and forth. Would be nice to have a sprayer hose pulling lake water...

Just looking for suggestions on where to install it and where to fish the tubes and wires. I've got my own idea, but if someone has done it already, it would be nice to know how and where.

Thanks!

I added a washdown system to my 268, and use it a lot. I can't help with routing through your boat. I added a pump in the engine room and routed water lines to the bow and stern. We use the system to rinse the anchor rode every time we raise it. I tee'd into the supply line for the toilet and added a check valve in the toilet line so the pump would not pull lake water away from the toilet. We have used the one at the stern for rinsing a dinghy or other water toys, etc.
