Ray I have a 1985 C&C 33 mk 2 and i noticed that after about 2 days I have about 2 liters of water. I looked at the stuffing box and the raw water intake and other spots and found them to be good. I then took a wet vac and cleaned out the bildge and engine area. used baby pouder and found that I have a small amount of water coming in from the keel bolts. I am going to look at this further. Does anyone have the specs for the tourgue that is suppose to be on these bolts? Or any comments at what to try first? I do not have a C&C smile and the boat had no issues last season.

I have a question regarding water in the bilge area. I just put my boat in to start the season. I found that my Bilge Pump Float switch was not working. I also found that with the boat sitting in the water, the bilge filled up with water in quite a short time (like it about 4 hours) I wanted to know if that seems right. I should with the water rising so quickly, the bilge pump would be running all the time. Does anyone know what could be causing it? I removed the hose from the stern that fed into it, just to make sure it was not coming from the engine compartment. Any ideas? Ray Macklin LakeHouse Milwaukee
