You’re welcome! I’ve been trying to collect PDFs of all the ancient systems in
my boat; she came without most of them. Let me know if you need anything else.

The Paragon is not the v-drive, just the reversing gear; and I use straight 30
SAE oil in it, per the manual. I’ve posted the manual on my server — you can
download it here:

See page 5 for the recommended lube.
I believe the separate v-drive want

I have heard that engine coolant passages can get clogged or thermostat
stuck. Did the over temp switch get changed when the hex was added? Did
you check the switch for proper ops? IR point and shoot thermometers are
cheap. I would shoot some temps to verify overtemp.

I have owned my LF38 for 27 years and have made a lot of upgrades to it over
the years. Since we both live in Annapolis, we should get together and discuss
our boats and upgrades.
I have decided against installing a windlass (at least for now) because of
several reasons.

My 3QM30F will drive the boat just fine; I’ll have to check prop size and pitch
when (or if?) I can get up to the boat for the first time this season.
This is through a Paragon reversing gear and (Kanzaki?) v-drive.

it was done and checked everyting and I still do not feel comfortable. I
replaced Sunrod HE , new goose neck elbow, install external gravity tank so
water level is always fine and still do not feel comfortable. What is the
recommended engine and propeller size ?

I agree with Fred that a re-power is a very expensive solution to a
relatively minor problem. The impeller and mixing elbow would be my first
2 suspects.
Wally did a re-power and a windlass:

There can be lots of simple reasons why an engine overheats. My Universal
overheats if the belt is loose.
Pull the hose from the mix elbow and see if you have good flow. If you do,
maybe the elbow is clogged with soot. If you don't have good flow, work
your way upstream until you find why.

Hello - Been a member of this digest since late 90's, but haven't had time to
monitor the board very often. I decided to take on a big project and finally
replace the trusty old 2QM20 in my 1979 C&C34 with a (new to me) yanmar 3GM30F.
Will try and share info as I go, but the first (daunting) tas
