I do not pretend to know the physics of it, but I periodically read about two lovely people found dead in their stateroom with the genny purring...
Dunno, call me old fashion, but I would not sleep very well on a 35' express with the genny running, even with blowers in the engine room. What...
I treat the inside wood base for the window with linseed oil because it tends to " dry out" from the sun/ heat. That has solved the leaking for...
RT46 Big difference with a sound shield enclosure around your gen set. I tried taking mine off, thinking it was "healthier" for the genny -...
I mean this in the kindest of terms, but if you do not have any blue water sailing experience, you do not belong an a 22 foot boat in the middle...
That old fashioned monkey wrench works very well. Try to wrap the shaft with some tape where it will bite to help prevent nicks, and make certain...
Has anybody used or heard of baking soda being periodically run thru the heads and lines to help keep the system fresh?

Wade I modestly recommend that you create a critical checklist for yourself before you leave port. Especially if you're going offshore without...
QUOTE]what am i forgetting? I think you said the boat was on the bottom for two days, how's the running gear. Don't overlook transmission...
NYCAP123 You are a bold man! I salute you
Wade You might want to think about checking the shower sump pump also. Its a small collection box with an 800gph rule bilge pump in it...
It might help reduce your investigative work if you can deternine whether the bilge flooded with salt or fresh water. How's the water level...
I agree with Marmot. But what ever material your boat is made of, make sure your metal thru hulls are bronze. Brass is household stuff which can...
