Mike, Dave asked a key question. I just want to highlight it and ask for some more info. When do you see the leak? Is it continuous or intermittent? If intermittent, after a rain event? Is the boat in the water or on the hard? -- Dennis C. Touche' 35-1 #83 Mandeville, LA On Tue, Jan 19,

So, with no damage evident, the water is either coming through the keel/hull joint, and migrating along the keel bolt up into the space where the putty fills the forward part of the keel stub. (Which is why i say to check the torque...). OR - water, When it does get into the sump (rain, whateve

So there is some water that comes down the mast. But the mast sits in a metal box. I sealed the bottom with silicone, drilled a hole in the aft side and ran a tube into the bilge. So any water that comes down the mast runs directly into the bilge. Somehow water is getting into the keel stub itsel

Mike - I see you did the Bristol repair. You mention that the water comes from the ‘bilge wall’ which I take to mean the plywood partition at the forward end of the keel sump. If so, is it leaking out of the holes drilled for the bilge pump hose clamps? (This obviously means water is in the f

Mike, The first thing to check is if the water is salt water or “fresh" water. If it’s fresh water, check your hatches and windows for leaks, as well as all of the places where you have deck controls attached to the boat (it could be a leak in one of your jib tracks or the traveler or along you

A trusted friend has a Yanmar 3GM30F available (he's going all electric). I've bonded with our C&C 30 MKI Atomic 4, but diesel and a little more oomph into a headwind and big water is appealing. Does anyone have an experience with swapping the A4 to this model of Yanmar? David J. Morris,
