Try Trident 101 or Trident 102 marine sanitation hose. 
http://www.tridentmarine.com/stage/sanitation.htm . I have the same 
situation in that there are un removable sags and it works fine. Peggy Hall 
will probably back me up that this is the best hose available. Call Blue 
Water Yacht Sales during the week and ask for Scott. Tell him I sent you. 
Last price I say was $5.65/foot for the 101. 251.943.4179 Scott's the only 
one who can cut a deal. No connection just a good business. If you're 
outside AL there's no tax and shipping's cheap.

They recently split off from the parent store where I found the hose listed 
a little cheaper:

Also buy high quality SS hose clamps and double clamps.
