On my '76 33-1, the cockpit drains into thru hulls with inline ball valves in a y configuration below the cockpit floor and then straight down thru the hull, well beneath the waterline. It appears from line drawings that this is the only practical configuration. If the drains were rerouted to either side of the hull or to the stern above the waterline, there would a) not be enough slope, and b) the outlets would allow water back into the cockpit when heeling or with a following wave. Has anyone done this, or am I correct in my assessment? Has anyone used marelon replacement flanged seacocks? Their video says they are to be screwed only to a backing plate and not screwed all the way thru the hull. Seems like a good solution if it works. Thx for any input.

My engine developed loss of power / stalling issues last year and it was related to an air leak, once we started looking at the fuel system in details we found issues everywhere. I'm not kidding. My lift pump was tired, the fuel hoses had small cracks, there was a problem with the one-way valve at the tank (Not needed, I just removed that), and even my Racor housing was cracked so I replaced everything: the lines, the Racor and housing/mounting, the lift pump, the one way valve was removed, all is fresh from the tank to the block and the engine runs fine / the cold starts are much quicker. Good luck with it. Francois Rivard 1990 34+ "Take Five" Lake Lanier, GA -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Often times the vent hose isn't inspected or replaced at the same periodicity. Main Sailor did some experimenting with fuel tanks and condensation. FWIW he did not find that any more condensation accumulated in a partial tank. As such I take a different approach to fueling my boat. Typically I won't use the entire 40 gallon capacity of my tank in a single year. So unless I'm going on a long trip I only fuel up with 10 to 15 gallons. I try to plan it so that I can fill via jerry cans through a filter funnel. At roughly 1 gallon per hour I know that I'm good for 10+ hours at full load. It only takes about 30 minutes to motor out and motor in so I get a minimum of 10 day sails between fill ups and that is very conservative. By filling in this manner my fuel always stays fresh and any minor contaminants will get diluted by the next fill up.
