Stus-List First sail

2014-05-25 Thread M Bod via CnC-List

OK. Boat got off the dock today. After a bunch of engine work, new hoses and 
new fuel tank (all installed by mechanic) everything is supposed to be working 
smoothly.

Well. Getting off the dock was not so smooth. Couldn't sort out why roller 
furler was jamming for a bit. 
Finally sorted the issue, started the engine, made sure all looked good 
(exhaust a little louder than I expected, but not bad).

Off we went (had a friend along to assist moving the boat from the marina to a 
nearby cove where it can stay an extra week).

10 min out I see some smoke riding through the companion way. Throttle down. 
Full off engine cowling. Coolant everywhere! Must have a leak.

We turn around to limp back to the dock. I'm looking at the mess with the 
coolant boiling over when I realize (OK remember mechanic warned me) the 
seacock for the engine is CLOSED!!!

Opened the seacock.  Everything cooled off. We had burned off much of our 
coolant - so I poured in a 1/2 litre water bottle. Kept the engine at low rpm 
and made the run to the cove.

Little hitch at the end.  Went to furl the jib but too much sail and not enough 
line on the furling drum. Only managed to pack away 2/3 of the sail. Solved 
that by doing 10 clockwise circles in the bay to wrap the sail around the 
forestay! Dirty, but it worked. 
All told we survived. Feel like a royal idiot for forgetting the seacock. Had 
pretty good water shooting out of the muffler after - but I figure I better 
pull the impellor and check/replace it anyway.

I had checked the exhaust when we started - saw splashes. But later realized I 
was looking at the air exhaust hitting the water and causing a little splash.

Still a little shell shocked from the experience but thinking I'll likely 
remember the seacock in the future!

Either leave the engine seacock open, or hang the ignition key off the
seacock handle. Me, I'm useless and we have a Yanmar, so I can start the
engine with pretty much anything I have in my pocket including lint. I
leave the seacock open. I know this makes me a bad person and I can live
with that.
