Soft and flexible hose

Does anyone know of a source for soft, flexible hose. rubber preferred. It can be relatively thin wall - just has to be able to fit and connect in a really tight spot. Does not have to be "marine" though. 1.25" ID.

Or something like bilge pump PVC hose, but without the ribs (can't clamp down over those ribs).

Thanks guys!

Below waterline? Water system plumbing?

The wire re-enforced hoses are more stiff than the other types.

Can you go to a chandlery and try some out?

If it's not below waterline/thruhull try FlexPVC

Need to know the purpose before I can make any recommendation. Purpose, location (above/below waterline), what's on each end (etc.)... Nobody can offer any advice without more info.
