Hello to all. My first post.
I'm the new owner of a previously well loved C&C 33 mkii 1985. I'm
going through I think the normal new boat
challenges/headaches/expenses...but in particular a couple that I'd
like some advice on:
1. Upon cleaning a really smelly,slimy bilge today (salt water,
Vancouver BC) I noticed water spraying into the bilge from an old
screw hole (low in the bilge, on forward side, used for holding bilge
line). It stopped spraying/dribbling after approx. 10 min (and a bit
of a panic). I'm assuming the "putty" fill (as shown in the owners
manual) forward of the bilge wall might have voids that fill with the
raising water in the bilge? When the bilge is emptied the water
forward has some head to it and comes back into the bilge. Does this
all make sense? Should I be concerned? What can I do?
2. With winter arriving, I've been trying to plug into shore power.
Unfortunately our service is only 15 Amps. All I have running is a
smart charger (drawing 5 amps at 120V) and a saucer heater drawing 0.7
amps. The breaker on the shore panel keeps tripping. I checked the
charger by plugging it in direct...and all fine. I bought a new cable
with a more positive connection to the pigtail. To no avail. So, I
think I have a problem on the boat. Any suggestions?
Thanks. Any thoughts appreciated.
