Hello Alex, I believe you are referring to my D3-110 failure. When I experienced my water ingest issue, it was after a fairly calm trip up from Florida to the Chesapeake Bay. I ran the engine quite a

I was there in December and Carrefour has been beautiful rebuilt, even nicer than before. Interesting Port de Plaisance is now only slightly more than IWW... definitely a nicer place. What are the

Hi Woody I have ask Maude in La Rochelle for some plans but no news yet . I’ll follow it up with a phone call and let you know , otherwise I’ll send you measurements and photos if you need

Yes, you should have 3 wires to the motor +24, -24 and bonding (green/yellow) We have a leak detection switch in the companion way.....not sure if you have that...it can tell you if you have a leak

Dave, My boat did not come with electric heads ,so there was no bonding wires going to the head. I realize zincs do erode over time ,but mine are eroding at an accelerated rate I believe ,which could

Unfortunately, the Carrefour is gone. When we staying there in May the price was only slightly more expensive than IWW.

Hi Courtney, The island water world I am referring to is in the Dutch side of Simpson bay lagoon. You have to enter through the bridge. It is to your Port as you round snoopy island. The contact

Hi Alex, My understanding of the anti-siphon on the raw water line (between the exit from heat exchanger and input to exhaust elbow), is to prevent continuous water flow (after engine shutdown)

I'm not sure I fully understand this quote from Oliviers post: " Last point, the anti-siphon system cannot prevent water from getting into the exhaust line. It is designed in order no water can be
