John:
Taking into account my previous post to Burt, can you elaborate on the
leaky impeller gasket.

Burt:
If you are referring to the 'water pump' on the front of the engine,
that is not where the antifreeze is originating from.....it appears to
be dripping from the back of the engine on the port side or to the right
looking into the engine compartment from the companionway.
