If you are referring to the 'water pump' on the front of the engine,
that is not where the antifreeze is originating from.....it appears to
be dripping from the back of the engine on the port side or to the right
looking into the engine compartment from the companionway.

I would replace my water pump shaft seals. Can't hurt and might fix the

Check to insure your engine block drain valves are tight before winter
storage. Second thought is weird but offered anyhow. Is antifreeze fresh?
Could there be a blockage somewhere where the antifreeze is diluted and
freezes which would expand and force the top stuff out somehow. I said it
was a weird thought! I will discuss it with the mechanic at the yard who is
pretty sharp and seen most things.

Subject: Stus-List Antifreeze Mystery
After the engine is winterized in the Fall, I place a plastic pan under
it.....not sure why but I do. Every Spring, there is approximately a half a
cup or 250 ml of antifreeze in the pan.
I have looked everywhere for the source of this antifreeze but I can't find
out where it is coming from. The boat was launched 3 weeks ago, the engine
has about 3 hours on it since then, the pan is still under the engine but
there is no antifreeze in it. And the antifreeze does not appear during the
sailing season.
I notice every Spring the level of the antifreeze in the 'overflow
container' is down a bit and I refill to the 'FULL LEVEL' but that container
is not leaking. It's a mystery!
Anybody experience this and/or have any ideas where this antifreeze could be
originating from?
