Freshwater hose storage ideas
Need some ideas on a NEAT way of storing my 50' fresh water hose. Would like something I could store it in, and remove the hose and storage "device" from compartment. Thanks in advance.

Didn't read through all seven pages so maybe this idea was covered.
I installed pegboard with hooks in my under-bed outside storage compartment on the front wall of the compartment, where I hang crank handles, hoses, electric cords, etc.
By doing this I can hang several hoses to use a short length much of the time, and additional sections as needed for when a greater distance is necessary. Makes both coiling and storage easier. I screw the hose female and male connectors to each other after coiling, eliminating the need for zip ties, Velcro straps, etc. as well as keeping the inside of the hoses clean and sanitary. I keep other fresh water pieces and inline filter in a dedicated canvas tool bag. Incidentally, another bag for electric hook-up, another for camp set-up, another for etc.
Pegboard installation is described elsewhere on this forum, specifically under travel trailer modifications.
