[Alberg30] Stuffing Box Hose

[Voyager Toronto]

I'm having trouble finding replacement stuffing box hose of the correct 
size, i.e. 1-3/8" internal diameter. After trying marine stores, truck and 
auto shops and pool installers, it appears just about ALL hose comes in 
standard 1/4" increments. I've seen "exhaust hose" suggested as a substitute 
in the archives but was disappointed in the piece I examined in one marine 
shop, as it isn't straight, and appeared too limp. The shop advised against 
using it saying it would not stand up to wear and could endanger the boat if 
it fails, and having seen and handled it, I agree. (But are different kinds 
of exhaust hose ..?)

Can someone who's been through this problem recommend something?
