I have an "L" shaped removable wood shelf between my engine and the rest of
the cockpit locker.
It fits in nicely, keeps things from entering the engine area. Allows air
to flow as it does not come all the way up.
Allows things to be placed on it.
Here are two pictures: one in place the
On my 38 OF I have a piece of plywood that has 2 smaller pieces to sandwich
factory divider. Slides over the top, doesn't allow anything to fall into
engine space, and is easily removed for maintenance. Plus it is where I hang
the emergency tiller, and small shop vac. Never thought it wasn't
On our 34, have the same issue of a cavernous opening from the lazarette to the
engine compartment / prop shaft with all kinds of potential for mischief. We
address this by 1) a laundry basket on top of the water heater to hold all
sheets and lines, 2) fenders are always placed in lazarette
I’ve seen peg board used here, it stops everything from falling into the shaft
and lots of holes to provide airflow to the engine compartment.

On my 30, I use a piece of fishing net stretched between broom handles. I
can drop the top handle to access the engine compartment. I try not to stow
anything in the lazarette that is small enough to go through the net. So
far so good.

While now exactly C related, this may provide help to some lister.
I previously posted about cleaning my old NACRA beach cat in preparation
for selling it. It was REALLY dirty. Lichens, attached vines, mold, you
name it. I experimented with polishing compound, 800 grit sandpaper,

I've tried a piece of plywood. It initially overheated the engine one
night. So I drilled a few holes in the plywood with a hole-saw. That helps,
but I don't feel it's a good solution. The cargo net idea might work
better.
Was it just left open like this from the factory or was there something
Did that to allow lots of air flow to engine

On my 1994 37/40+ there is an access port in the head bulkhead. This makes it
easier to work on the raw water pump and starter. I don't know how you would
access either without it.
You might want to dress the face of the pump with a smooth flat file, just to
remove a thigh spots that

I have a 33-2 my original idea was to buy a automotive cargo net and put it
place to keep things in place.
Never got around to it , I simply put the hatch board in place to prevent
things from spilling .

Persistence has a piece of vinyl that snaps into place for this purpose. Has
noise dampening material on the engine side as well.

I have this exact same issue just on a 34. I'd also like to find some way
to separate the lazarette from the engine bay. I luckily have not had
anything fall in there before, but I'm terrified of when it will happen.
I'm definitely interested in suggestions from others.

I have no separation between my cockpit locker and the shaft and engine other
than a short piece of glasses wood that is about a foot high. This really
limits the usefulness of the locker. I had a dinghy paddle bounce into the
shaft that caused my some brief trying to determine where the

Note that you may also have an O ring or 2 on the shaft that the impeller turns
on that are on the engine side of the impeller. On my Beta, there were 2 O
rings between the impeller and the engine--these keep the water out of the
crankcase, etc.
If these are bad or the shaft is 'scored',

Bruce,
The issue with putting a gasket under the cover is that now the cover
will be moved away from the edge of the vanes of the impeller. The pump
works by creating a vacuum in each space between the vanes at the inlet
as the impeller vanes open up and pressure when the vanes close down a
Hello,
I replaced the impeller on a Yanmar 3JH2E about a month ago, and I was checking
over the engine last weekend and noticed some wetness coming through around the
impeller cover. I tightened the cover bolts (they were not really loose), and
the leak still continues. When I replaced the
