Stus-List Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: C&C 35 MK 1 bow water tank
Mine is on the way from England just in time for a Thanksgiving cruise. If things go as usual we’ll have a real cold couple of weeks before Christmas, instead of putting antifreeze in there I can just take it home 😊 Joe Coquina From: Dennis C. via CnC-List Sent: Tuesday, October 24, 2023 8:40 PM To: Stus-List Cc: Dennis C.

Stus-List Pressure water pump leak
Spending a few days on Touche’ cruising turns up a few gremlins. Here’s an interesting one. Bilge pump was running a bit more than expected. Found the gasket on the head of my Shurflo pressure water was leaking. I depressured the pump, tightened the screws and it quit. I suspect the air in the accumulator had leaked out over the years so the diaphragm pump was hammering on the fasteners pretty good and they loosened. An accumulator dampens the water hammer. I grabbed the air pump for my fenders and added some air for insurance. When I get back to home slip I’ll depressure the water side and check the air side for pressure. All this while the Navy Blue Angels we’re practicing overhead. Dennis C.
