When tabasco (c&c25 with an outboard) is on the dock, there is absolutely no water coming in. When I am out, even motoring, I get some water in, maybe 2 quarts an hour, even in calm seas. I am in the process of replacing some rusty keel washers, but the nuts seem to be tight and I have no "smile".
I have a hard time believing that so much water is seeping through the keel bolts. Does anybody have any other logical explanation besides pressure created on the leading edge of the keel ? I have no stuffing box. Ahmet S/V Waterdancer 43 Irwin MKII I S/V Tabasco C&C 25 Winthrop, MA, USA
