If you cannot find a local shop and are willing to ship the pump to Seattle I recommend Lew Townsend (lewtowns...@comcast.net<mailto:lewtowns...@comcast.net>).
Lew rebuilt Calypso’s Sailtec backstay adjuster last year. The price and service were both great.

I remember a few months back there was some discussion about getting seals replaced or other servicing work done on the Navtec hydraulic pump. The consensus seemed to be that it was much cheaper and faster to get it done by the local hydraulic shop. My Navtec pump is leaking a little and my husband removed the unit last weekend to take it to a local place that we knew had worked on one from another C&C in the past. The idea was just to have the seals replaced as it was still working fine, just dripping hydraulic fluid. Unfortunately, the shop said they couldn't take it apart because they were afraid to break it? Hmmm? Does anyone on the Gulf Coast have a place they like? Prefer someplace from Mobile to New Orleans but I am willing to go Pensacola to Fort Walton as well. Mailing it off is next option. I did look on the Lewmar website and that is a real maze! Found this: Where can I find some one to service my hydraulics or rod rigging? Please refer back to our agent list and the chart of service provided for the closest servicing agent. but not the lists they refer too! We were hoping to get this little project completed in the next couple weeks as the next race is Mar 7! We are already missing the February Sunday club racing and don't want to be out of commission too long! Thank you for any advice! Tracy Hirsh Ogopogo 1989 C&C 37+ CB Fairhope, Alabama
